Where is God when you need Him?
Deuteronomy 31
I wonder why, when Moses was about to die, why God told him of the apostasy the people would commit. It may have been mostly for Joshua, who was with him.
Anyway, God said that they would go after other gods / God would be angry with them / and that He would forsake them and "hide My face from them."
The people's response would be "Is it not because our God is not among us that these evils have come upon us?"
Isn't human nature something? And, aren't we all the same? We reap what we sow and then say it's because God is not here for us .. where is God when you need Him? Actually, He's wanting to help us. Why then do we then blame Him, instead of ourselves, or the enemy, Satan?
Thank you God, that you are faithful to Yourself and to Your word, and even faithful to us. If I sin & repent, you are there to rescue. You are amazing!
