And here I was fiddling my troubles on my one string violin.
The day which broke bright and sunny suddenly became overcast with clouds of anxiety. Raindrops came falling on my head.
I knew all the Bible verses, remembered all the teaching on how to cast all your care on the Lord because He careth for you.
But still I tried to take shelter under my leaky umbrella.
After agonising over it for a while, I surrendered the problem to the Lord, promising to remain strong and trusting , come what may.
I lay down to take forty winks and when I awoke the Spirit prompted me to seek help from one particular person.
I rang him up and the positive assurance I received from him made a clean sweep of all the cobwebs of my mind.
I was ready to celebrate instead of gathering up the broken pieces of my day.
Jesus said ,"Ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find knock, and it shall be opened to you." Matthew 7;7
NASB (BIBLE)
Jesus did not tell us to agonise, scream and kick box when problems come our way.But ask, seek and knock.
Remember it is the very time for faith to work when sight ceases. The greater the difficulties, the easier for faith; as long as there remain certain natural prospects, faith does not get on even as easily as where natural prospects fail. --George Mueller
