“See, the enemy is puffed up; his desires are not upright— but the righteous person will live by his faithfulness— indeed, wine betrays him; he is arrogant and never at rest.

Life often doesn’t seem fair. Injustice, violence and inequality are everywhere. The rich and the powerful seem to be winning. And the average man or woman in the street, trying to live a good life… what’s in it for them? Join Author Berni Dymet from Christianityworks to ask the question, When will God finally show up? You might be surprised by the answer!
As destruction unfolds around him, Habakkuk questions God and His plans. God’s response to Habakkuk reminds us that He alone orders the unfolding of history. Those who are righteous will have faith in His plans (Habakkuk 2:3). Despite the darkness of the season, we too can “rejoice in the Lord” and “take joy in the God of our salvation” (Habakkuk 3:18).

This three-day plan, Thankful through the Struggle, invites you to discover God’s presence and provision even in the hardest times. Through the prayers of Habakkuk, you’ll be reminded that gratitude in prayer can forge a pathway to peace.
