God does hear your prayer & HE is working on your situation whether you believe it or not. God loves you & the evidence of this is not in the fact or whether He has answered your prayer or not, the proof is in the fact that HE sent His son to die for you before you were even born so that you might have victory in all your situations. Often times we try to measure God's love by the things HE does for us or by how fast He answers our prayers. The truth is, God loved us so much that He poured all of His anger, love, forgiveness & grace into His son Jesus so that when we believed on Him & His finished work, ever provision we would ever need would be supplied! I've been at this very same place in my life with God. I have 2 children who were molested & abused by their father. He had never been in the children's lives. The father took me to court for custody, yes really, but the court refused & gave him visitation after I told the court that I did not want unsupervised visits because the father had been accused of trying to molest a child on his bus route that same year. The courts ignored me & these things happened to my children. I had no money but tried to fight & get charges pressed against the molester. Even with pictures of the abuse & blood in my children's underwear, the crime was covered up. I carried my babies inside the hospital in my arms because they were unable to even walk & on record in what is supposed to be a court of law, it was said that these events never happened. 3 different doctors got involved with the case, wrote letters, made calls & gave recommendations that the children not go back with the father & requested that the children be given an order of protection. It was all ignored. I got the governors office to order DCFS to re investigate the case & the day they contacted me, they told me they were forced to investigate but they know there would be no findings before the investigation even began. I never heard back from them nor did they contact the doctors or see my children. They did nothing & lied to the governors office saying they investigated when they never did anything. See, the abusers mom works with DCFS that why everything he has done keeps getting swept under the rug. The incident on his bus route was never reported & seems to have never happened but if you look at the month that I say the incident happened, you will see that all of a sudden he was removed from a bus route he had had for years to a new route. I still pressed & tried to bring to light everything that was happening to my children & I. In September, I got a new hearing. I could not afford a lawyer but legal aid agreed to represent me. Legal aid didn't show & during the hearing I presented all their records as well as the pictures with blood in their underwear. The judge wouldn't even look at the evidence. When the other side could not explain the records & photos, the investigator told the judge that I was the one who abused my children. When I tried to get them to arrest me, they refused but took custody from me & now I don't have my children. If you look at the court papers it says I made false reports & was considered a threat to my children when the courts know I didn't even have my children during the times the abuse happened. They refuse to charge me or take my other 4 children since I am a threat. They know that my case would no longer be handled by this county if they did & people would see what they have done. I hurt everyday & even threw God away because how can a God so Mighty & Powerful, Who knows ALL & sees ALL, sit back & watch what these people have done to me & my babies? I have asked God to just take me so that I can ask Him to His face, what in the world are you doing & why me??? I have been thru so much in my life & I made it when I thought I would die. I heard God say, Why not you? It hurts even talking about it now but you know what, my only hope is in God & tho I don't understand it & it breaks my heart, I am determined to show God that I trust Him by standing firm because I know God is a God of justice & truth. Everyday I wake up, I am determined to have joy & Praise God even when I don't feel like it. Sometimes my heart is so heavy & there is a lump in my throat from crying & I can't even gather the strength to talk, I still manage to lift up my head & Praise Him & soon, His joy restores me & His grace give me the strength to fight another day. I don't even get to talk to my children & don't know what's happening in my situation but this I know, the moment I prayed, God began to work for me & my children. Don't focus on the problem, focus on the praise! Don't worry about God's timing because His timing is perfect! We all want the Blessings but nobody wants to suffer or go thru the fire so that God can make our situation complete, entire where we are wanting nothing when HE is done! I challenge to change your thinking & get into the word more. Find you scriptures & Promises that cover your situation & speak them out loud throughout the day. Last but not least, seek God not for what HE can do for you but what He can do thru you. Take this time to minister to others who are going through difficult situations. Show God that you trust Him even when it looks like He isn't there then soon & suddenly, you will see the manifestation of your miracle! I believe God has worked out your situation. Wait for the divine appointment & release then come back & share with us your praise report!!! ~Blessings
