“We know that God is always at work for the good of everyone who loves him. They are the ones God has chosen for his purpose. —Romans 8:28 (CEV)

“4 Things God Is Doing in the Silence” By Shakia Clark:

“Silence can be awkward in certain settings. But as believers, silence can also be a gift. A moment of stillness and silence can bring the gentle whispers of God’s voice to speak to the things concerning our hearts.

Our silence propels us to remember how the God we serve is near us. He positions Himself to be close to His sons and daughters.

But what do we do when it feels as if God is silent? How do we not grow weary when we can’t see what He is doing? How do we move forward when it feels as if He isn’t hearing us or answering our deepest prayers?

Even when we can’t see His hand at work, our Heavenly Father is always working behind the scenes on our behalf.”

“I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 (NIV)

“Fear is one of the enemy’s favorite weapons. Worry, anxiety, fear… it can all overwhelm us like a thick shadow of darkness, controlling our every move and decision. Yet reality tells us that so much of what we spend our time worrying about never even happens. Living under the weight of the "what if's" is a hard place to dwell. God has words of life - of truth – that he wants to speak into your fears. Soaking them in, praying them out loud until they became so familiar they replace the other things in your mind -- that is the first line of defense against fear and worry. There’s nothing magical about words and verses, but there is power through them, because they’re God’s words.” —iBelieve.com
