It is a good and blessed thing to bring burdens to the throne of grace, even when the lips cannot or need not declare all the particulars. The Lord knows them altogether. You have four unspoken requests, and while they are unspoken to us, they are all known to Him who hears prayer.
We will do for you what the apostle bids us, to bear one another's burdens and so fulfil the law of Christ. When we have prayed for ourselves, we do not end our supplication, but we bear in prayer those burdens which God lays upon our brethren. Be assured that these four matters, though hidden from our eyes, are now spread before the Lord in whose holiness He has already spoken.
Remember that God has spoken in His holiness, and faith may therefore rejoice even while waiting for the answer. You are waiting for an answer, but God has given it in His Word. He has declared that whosoever trusts in the blood of Jesus Christ shall not be put to shame, that Christ has borne the penalty for His people beneath that crimson canopy of the cross, and that no flash of divine penalty shall fall upon the soul that stands there. If you can say, I have trusted in the Lord Jesus alone for salvation, then you have received it from Headquarters and there can be no mistake about it. Salvation is not by ceremonies nor by works of the law, for even perfect obedience would be but our duty, but by grace through faith in the Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
Therefore fly away to Christ anew with each of these burdens. Stand in spirit beneath the cross and feel that you are safe there. Take God at His word, for it is true humility to believe Him when He says He will save and keep those who trust Him. And while clouds may surround you, your God is your light, though storms rage around you, your God is your might.
Our prayer for you is this, that the God who sees in secret will hear these four unspoken cries according to His perfect wisdom and holiness, that He will give you present peace and the joy of hope for future perfection, that He will teach you His statutes and cause you to know His will, and that He will exalt Himself above all your cares so that you may see His glory and His great mercy which is unto the heavens. May He grant you to cast every burden upon Him who cares for you, to trust and not to fear, and to rejoice because God has spoken.
We bear these requests with you before the Lord, asking that His holy will be done in each one, for Christ's sake. Amen.
