A Request for Faith Believing Prayers

[Stanfi]

I've been thinking about something, and today I had some extra time to think about it. I feel like God cheated me out of something, screwed me over. I won't go into details, but I feel like God placed a big juicy carrot in front of my face, and then at this last minute decided that I wasn't good enough.

I know the Bible says "All things work to the good of them who love the Lord", and that "even the very hairs of our head are numbered". I know all of this, and I believe God's word, but this one situation the more that I learn the more cheated I feel.

I am requesting prayer from some faith believing Christians on my behalf that God will give me the answer to why he did this. I've have tried to pray about it myself, but I think I have such doubt and lack of faith about this whole thing, that it's just not getting anywhere.

Thanks and God Bless.

mrstace in my own life I have found that God has taken things away from me when I put too much importance on them. I believe it has been to protect me from setting up idols in my heart.

Some times what we think is mean for God to do is just His protecting our salvation.

You do need to keep reminding yourself that "all things work for good." It helps!!

I will be praying for you! May God strengthen your heart, increase your faith, and help you to grasp how much He loves you!!

EPH 3:14 For this reason I kneel before the Father, 15 from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Hi MrStace:

I agree with Terri...for you know in your heart that the Lord has no reason to "cheat" you, nor that your are ever not "good" enough.

Many times there is the temptation of an Ishmael before there is the promised Issac in our lives.

Keep before Him, humbly seeking His Wisdom on this thing - and keep praising Him - for truly He desires only good for you, his child.
