It is Okay to Question God – Psalm 13

The journey with Jesus isn’t always easy. It teaches us that struggles and trials can shape our character, strengthen our faith, and draw us closer to God.

In the time of Elisha the prophet, a widow in desperate need approached him, having been left with debts and facing the threat of losing her sons to creditors. With only a small jar of oil remaining, Elisha instructed her to borrow as many empty vessels as she could from her neighbors, then pour the oil into them.

Genesis 21 reveals true worship through Abraham and Sarah’s response to God’s fulfilled promise. God gave them Isaac in their old age, and they named him “laughter,” recognizing the joy and grace God brought into their lives (Genesis 21:6, KJV). Abraham’s obedience in circumcising Isaac on the eighth day further demonstrated worship through commitment to God’s commands (Genesis 21:4).

“And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked.” (2 Peter 2:7). In this passage, Peter highlights the tension between living righteously in a sinful world and the dangers of falling into temptation. Just as God spared Lot from the wickedness of Sodom, He delivers His people from the corrupt influences around them. Yet, the warning is clear: Christians must remain vigilant, living holy lives amidst a world full of sin and temptation.
