Sometimes our situation causes us to cry out in what sounds like impatience.  We need help!  We want God to come to our rescue now!  It seems that nothing is happening and something should be.  These prayers of desperation can be out of fear.  Desperate circumstances are reminders that we desperately need Him.  Do not forget that our lives are in God’s hands, and we can have full confidence in Him for the outcome.

Jesus Himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they *woke Him and *said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” Mark 4:38 (NASB)
