Where was God?

Where was God? We always hear that when a disaster of some sort happens. It always pains me to hear people wonder where God is/was. The answer? God is right there..right in the middle of whatever is going on..trying to help those who are in need, those who are searching for Him.

Bad things are in this world..Satan never seems to tire. But, just as tireless is God. And, God is here for us. He's ready to give us courage and strength. He's ready to give us healing and safety. He's right here and He's right next to you..are we acknowledging Him? Are we asking Him for help? Are we asking in faith because we KNOW God is with us ready to help? OR, are we asking in fear and asking "just in case" God is real and we need some help?

Bad things are always going to happen until Jesus comes back. That's just the way it is. But, if you have faith in the Lord, He WILL help you through these times.

Here is a story on the anniversary of what some call the 500 year flood. I hope it inspires you..I hope it shows you what God is doing and where God is when things all around us are going so terribly wrong.
