Doubt is one of the devil’s favorite tools. If he can make us question our faith, he can insert a wedge between us and the Father. Don’t let him do it! We know know know God loves us, yes? We know He makes good plans for us, yes? We know we can come to Him with our fears and worries and deepest desires and He will always listen and answer in the best possible way at the best possible time…yes? God’s delays are not denials. So trust Him, without any doubts, to do for you exactly what you need, when you need it most. I haven’t gotten everything I’ve asked for—not from my earthly parents or from my Father-God—but my good, good Father has met my every need for love, acceptance, comfort, peace, and strength. He gives from His endless well of blessings. He is the One on whom I can always depend.
