GOD IS NOT A MICROWAVE OVEN

When we complain that God is moving too slow to satisfy our request, our impatience is evidence of our unbelief. “ Matthew 6:30 Wherefore, if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?”  Our patience shows our faith in God’s promise.  Our patience and faithfulness will have its great rewards for things we thought had gone unnoticed by our Father.  We must cling to our Saviors promise as we walk the ledges of desperation, suffering, and pain; so we will become deeply rooted and develop fruit.  To become like Christ is not a seven-step program, it requires patience and spending time with Him daily.

Father, help us be patient and wait for You so Your goodness will not elude us.  Lord, help us steer clear of falsehood and immorality, help us stand true and build each other up in love and faith during these horrible times.  Father, reveal to Law enforcement the serial killer in Seminole Heights that is taking innocent lives; Lord, serve justice to him and all those who have murdered, for their selfish reasons.   Lord, cut down those who think too highly of themselves, and strengthen those who are weak in Spirit.    Lord, we are Your, people; who You made in Your image, so clothe us with Your compassion, kindness, humility, and patience.  Father, help us keep our hope high, for the day of Your return is near.  Father, help us become complete with Your Son, so much that we will be indistinguishable from Him, in Jesus name, Amen
