You Can Know
When I pray, even if I don’t feel as if God hears me, I know He does and will answer me (Jeremiah 29:12; Isaiah 65:24).
When I seek God, even if He feels far away, I will find Him (Jeremiah 29:13; Hebrews 11:6; Matthew 7:7, 8).
When I come near to God, even though I cannot feel His presence, I know He has come near to me (James 4:8a; Zechariah 1:3).
When I repent, even if I don’t feel forgiven, I know God has forgiven me (Micah 7:18, 19; Psalm 103:12).
When I am in trouble, even if I don’t feel Him with me, I know He is always present to help me (Psalm 46:1; 86:7).
When I respond to God, even when I feel His judgment all around me, I know He will hear and have mercy on me (2 Chronicles 34:26-28).
When I trust God, even when I feel danger surrounds me, I know He will save me (Jeremiah 39:18).
