Cry
17 You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted;
you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,
18 defending the fatherless and the oppressed,
so that mere earthly mortals
will never again strike terror. Psalm 10:17-18
Some days I wonder if the Lord hears my cry. I want answers but I don't always hear them. People give an encouraging word, yet I ignore it wondering why the Lord is silent. Does any of this sound like something you say? God is always there to hear us, whether we rejoice in His name or cry out to him in agony for relief from something going on in our life. This scripture easily reminds us that the Lord hears us and cares for us. We just don't see it sometimes because we want an answer now! Remember, God does listen, He does respond, it is just only when we are ready to hear his response or He is ready. It may be yes, it may be no, or it may be not yet. Wear this verse on your heart to remind yourself that God does hear us and cares for us.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
