"Faith to see God as a Good Father"

"Sometimes God doesn’t answer our prayers the way we would like. The truth is that God wouldn’t be a good Father if He gave us everything we wanted. In fact, one of the reasons He is good is because there are a LOT of times He doesn’t give us what we ask for. As long as we hold onto our earthly treasures, we will never be able to receive all that He has for us. Often, in His withholding, He is releasing our grip on this world to open our hands and make room for more of His blessings and more of Himself. Even when God is the furthest thing from our minds and choices, He is always ordering things on the timeline of the universe to be the best-case scenario in the end for us. How incredibly undeserving we are! ~ “Faith to see God as a Good Father” by Cara Cobble Trantham
