I wonder do you ever feel like giving up on your marriage ,children,church,job, yes even following the Lord?, because, what is your because?.You have prayed about things faithfully and nothing appears to change,well join the club. Elijah was a member of that club, surely not, after all he was a prophet, a man of God, one who stood,it seemed alone against a sea of evil.So what did he do ?well he talked to God honestly he had a good moan about the situation ,and he had a prayer request, he asked that he might die. I wonder do you have a death wish? Elijahs request was never answered, in fact he is one of those rare individuals who never died. It is a good job we dont recieve all we ask for , from God,that job, that girl,or boy we thought we loved,God said no, is not God wise and loving enough ,to knows whats best for us?. At this time you may feel like giving up,because of the circumstances you are facing, your requests are not answered,remember Elijah, and Gods no to Him,at that moment in time it may have seemed cruel, but it was,nt,God had some better thing for Elijah.
A prayer...../ Dear God we thank You that You say no at times to us,not a lot, but nevertheless You do,help us to see, yes through our despair and tears that You know whats best for us, grant us grace to not give up, in Jesus name Amen /
