During some of the darkest times in life we seem to focus on what God is not doing in our lives, rather than what He is doing.  We tend to focus on the darkness rather than hope through the darkness.  We must have hope in the darkness.

When things come against us beyond our control, and we wonder where God is, hope is the answer through difficult times.  The pain of despair is running rampant through our minds, but we must remember that the race is not won by the swift or t

“But the children of Israel had walked on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.” (Exodus‬ ‭14:29‬) It is very comforting to know that God is not caught off guard by any obstacle we may face.
