Are you a Soldier of The Cross?
Have you decided to follow Him? After all, it is a decision. We all agree you have been called. Will you obey?
If the answer is "yes", then you must learn to agree with God, no matter what.
Who knows why He has designed this life as we find it. Things seem so unfair. So unresolved. And the worst thing is, evil often appears to prevail.
How is it possible to pray over a child for years and years only to see drugs, fornication and a complete abandon of the Gospel? He knows, and He has already dealt with it. He has heard your desperate plea and He has answered you according to His Word.
That means He can be trusted to reveal the answer in eternity.
Maybe your child will be as Franklin Graham. But, what if not? Is He any less powerful? Is He any less able to hear? Does He care less? Is there some some sort of heavenly serendipity lottery that salvages recalcitrant children?
Oh, Soldier. He can be trusted or not. You can not serve Him and gaze upon Him while holding your breath to see if He will lift up your child on your time table.
Move out. On His Word. Be a Servant. And tell Him so. No matter what.
Stop focusing on the child and get back on track. Focus on Him.
Tell Him. Aloud. Today.
