Until God Answers ~

When you don’t know what to do,
and His answers haven’t come to you
when you’re feeling down and out
and you’re anxious and full of doubt.

That’s the time you need to look,
for His promises in the Good Book
you’ll find the remedy for your needs
when to His Word your spirit heeds.

When your troubles take over you,
and worry surrounds all you do
when you’re down and feeling sad
and your fears just mount and add.

That’s the time you need to pray,
asking the Lord to lead the way
He’ll lead you down the right path
so His will for you, you will know.

 When waiting for answers to your prayers,
remember that God has all your cares
for He’ll never take His eyes off you
so trust in Him no matter what you do!

Psalm 32:8
King James Version

“I will instruct thee and teach thee
in the way which thou shalt go:
I will guide thee with mine eye.”

Unanswered Prayer ~

Unanswered prayers,
where do they go?
The answer to this,
everyone wants to know.

Do they aimlessly travel,
through time and space?
Do they fail to reach heaven,
and met up with God’s grace?

Unanswered prayers,
so many are made
and so often our faith
begins to dim and fade.

But, God has His reasons,
for not fulfilling our prayers
and it has nothing to do with
whether or not He still cares.

Unanswered prayers,
God has heard each one
and sometimes they go unfulfilled
when we don’t trust in His Son.

Sometimes they go by the wayside,
because of the bitterness we hold
and the root of unforgiveness
has made our hearts grow cold.

Sometimes it’s unconfessed sin,
that stands in the way
sometimes it’s the motives
we use when we pray.

Sometimes it’s our faith,
and our wavering doubt
sometimes it’s when we shut
God’s authority out.

But most of the time,
it’s because we’re too impulsive
and things have to be right
for God is never compulsive.

Unanswered prayers,
God has a good reason
and His answers will come
in their due season!
