As i sat amidst the artwork of P.Graham Dunn at his gallery in Northern Ohio, I was surrounded by the scripture in word, in verse, in picture form, spiritual books and every avenue I saw or touched oozed of the Word of God but...I found my trust wavering in Him... thru one phone call...with the lack of one phone call... a over night package which would be in Haiti in 3 days to further the already desperate attempt to get our Haitian Daughter out of that poverty stricken country and into our family, was now delayed a total of 6 days more! Perhaps six days does not seem like much... but when it comes to the battle for a life... well it can seem like forever! At any rate, I found my faith wavering in a circumstantial way that I was hoping was in my past. I picked up a devotional book close by and the scripture that was brought to mind at the moment was Ephesians 3:20,21 "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." Finding comfort in these words I was set to wondering how many times I am doubting the goodness and mercifulness of God and how often does my trust in Him waver with circumstances that are completely out of my control...but always, always, in His control! Dear Father... do not allow me to become circumstantial again in my beliefs and trust. Help me to believe that the things that seem most impossible to man are even more certain to be possible for you! Thank you for the Word that you send to us in the time that we most need it! Lord, not my way...but Yours! Amen
