WHEN GOD SEEMS SILENT | JUNE 7, 2026
WHEN GOD SEEMS SILENT
Pastor Wes Morris
Psalm 13:1-6 (NIV) How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
Look on me and answer, Lord my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death, and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. I will sing the Lord’s praise, for he has been good to me.
√ WHEN GOD SEEMS SILENT, WE START ASSUMING INSTEAD OF TRUSTING.
Psalm 13:1 (NIV) How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
John 11:5-6 (NIV) Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days.
John 11:21 (NIV) “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
√ WHEN GOD SEEMS SILENT, OUR EMOTIONS GET LOUD.
Psalm 13:2 (NIV) How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart?
√ WHEN GOD SEEMS SILENT, THE STRUGGLE CAN BECOME ALL WE SEE.

Psalm 13:5-6 (TLB) But I will always trust in you and in your mercy and will rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord because he has blessed me so richly.
