Its so easy to get down, problems are piling up,family problems,lack of money,illness,and so we go on,and we might be like Elijah filled with despair (1 Kings 19),or like Elisha's servant when the enemies of Israel surrounded the city they were in,he cried out in fear,'what shall we do?'Elisha spoke to him ,'Don't be afraid.Those who are with us are more thatn those who are with them'.And Elisha prayed,'Open his eyes Lord ,so that He may see,and the servant looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire'. (2 Kings 6) In Psalm 78 v19 we have these words spoken by a unbelieving Israel.'Can God provide a table in the wilderness?',spoken in unbelief.There is a childrens chorus written by Nigel and Jo Hemming that goes,
'Our God is a great big God
Our God is a great big God
Our God is a great big God.
He's higher than a skyscraper
And deeper than a submarine,
He's wider than the universe,
And beyond my wildest dreams
He knows me,and He loves me,
Before the world began,
How wonderful to be part of
God's almighty plan'
