Dont Give Up Look Up!

As i sit in Church semi dozing off due to lack of sleep, fighting the urge to go back to the wonderful world of slumber like a mother fighting to find her baby in the burning building, i hear the pastor say "don't give up, look up!" He was talking about when your lost, when you pray for God to help you with something in your life and it don't feel like He can here you. He was saying to not give up but instead to look up to Christ and put your faith in Him and in prayer. No matter how Monotonous it feels waking up daily and praying the same thing over and over , day in and day out, you have to have faith that Christ will provide! All things happen in "GODS TIMING" as much as we would like for it to happen when we want it to...Sadly thats not the way this cookie crumbles. instead look at it like if God gave us everything we wanted when we wanted it what lesson's would we ever learn? Would we be as moral as we are? what happens when you give a child everything he wants? when said child grows up will that child know how to fend for them self? Wouldn't the child grow up expecting that everything be handed to them? like the story says "teach a man to fish he can eat for the day but teach a man how to fish and he can eat for a life time." Now God is teaching us to fish. If He were to give us everything we wanted we would starve when it came time for us to to teach our children how to "Fish" would they not starve as well?
