Hang in There
 

Hang in There by Max Lucado

Hang in there! Don’t give up! Is anything too hard for the Lord? No!

Easy for you to say! You have no idea how long I’ve been praying and asking—and asking again!

Just when you least suspect it—the God of surprises strikes again! God does that for the faithful. Just when the womb gets too old for babies, Sarah gets pregnant. Just when the failure is too great for grace, David is pardoned.The lesson? Those three words: Don’t give up! Is the road long? Don’t stop. Is the night black? Don’t quit. God is watching. For all you know, right at this moment—the check may be in the mail. The apology may be in the making. The contract may be on the desk. Don’t quit! You may miss the answer to your prayers! God is faithful—He’s always on time!

From Grace for the Moment

For me, when we pray and pray for the same thing over and over again, it shows lack of faith. When I put someone or something in my God's Hands they stay there. For all I know He is working in that person's life. His answer may not be to my liking, and I don't like the thought of praying and praying, trying to change God's Mind until it matches mine. Now that is scary! I pray that never happens.
