Sometimes it takes Him a while...

Andy started a 3-part series this weekend titled He's Still* Got the Whole World in His Hands. It's a timely series given the uncertainty surrounding us. "Knowing that God is still active during uncertain times allows us to maintain hope and faith, and keeps us from despair" (NP). He closed Part 1 by sharing a conversation he had with Rev. Otis Moss at the National Prayer Service. Towards the end of the conversation, Rev. Moss -- an African-American who grew up orphaned in Middle Georgia during the days of racial segregation -- paused, gazed off into the distance, and then recited the first half of Romans 8:28, "And we know that in ALL things God works for the good of those who love Him." adding, "And sometimes it takes Him a while."

Can you maintain your faith in God when there's absolutely no evidence of His activity in your life? According to Andy, your answer to that question will determine your response to the uncertainty in your life.
