"TRUST IN THE LORD!

      "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because 
      Anyone who comes to him must believe that he exisf and
      That he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
                                  HEBREWS 11 : 6


     "I HAVE BEEN DRIVEN to my knees many times, "said the American president Lincoln, "by the realization that there was nowhere else to go." It is amazing how high you can reach by bowing your knees before God.
      Consider this story: A helicopter was taking flak from the enemy, and the tail gunner, fearful the chopper might be shotdown, used his radio to call for help. "What's your position?" Asked the radio operator. Immediately the pilot responded, "Kneeling!"    
      It is with this kind of submission and surrender that you can discover what so many haved found: there is a place of quiet rest near the Heart of God. Sometimes what you say isn't nearly as important as the attitude of your heart. For instance a little child's tears do far more to move of a father than his persuasive words of argument.
       When you walk in darkness, having sustained a blow of one  kind or another, you might feel as if God doesn't notice or care. He does. You are simply numbered your pain and can't take your eyes from your wound.
        Try kneeling before the King and telling Him Why you are hurting. Your Father who sees your distress and cares for you will take note, and will honor the promises of His word. Faith tells
 Us there is One who knows your distress. Search your heart before Him and ask Him for a new heart, conscience washed by His blood, and light for the next step so "Trust in the Lord!
