I Am Second-Childless

        I read a very truthful and hard-hitting message today in a book I highly recommend called I Am Second 365, A 365 day devotion that leads you through your year day by day, leading you through the bible in a year. With all that background story being narrated, now for me to let out my interpretation of the message.

        The message was over Abraham and his want for children after many attempts and years of having a child with his wife Sarah, they just couldn’t do it without God’s help. So after years of prayer and patience, The lord delivered them a child gracefully. The point of this story is simple, but something we as christians make so complex. We pray to God with a lack of faith. We ask him to do things for us in our lives with no direction toward him, no strength or courage. God doesn’t call us to ask him or hide the emotions or needs you have. He knows all those already. He simply calls us to tell him what we need done, and he will come through. The thing is, most Christians can’t wait that long, doubting God and even his existence at times, but if your patience can be there, you will find an answer.

God Bless
