    There are times of uncertainty in our lives when we search for answers but feel that God doesn't hear our prayer or doesn't answer. What are we to do when God is silent and doesn't give us all the answers to all our questions?

    What do you do when God doesn't answer? Deuteronomy 29:29 There are times of uncertainty in our lives when we search for answers but feel that God doesn't hear our prayer or doesn't answer.

    Jesus tells us to strive to enter the narrow gate, while many will seek to enter when it is too late. The difference between seeking and striving for the kingdom of God.

    This is such a familiar Bible story that some of you may think, "I already know everything about this, so I can shove my mind into neutral & quit listening to the preacher." You see, familiarity often breeds contempt.

    Many have gotten their priorities confused. So much time is spent worrying about "things" that we lose sight of what truly matters. We seek gold while dismissing God. We seek health while neglecting holiness.

    When you relate to God, set Christ apart as Lord, you are always ready to give an answer. An answer to everyone who asks you the reason for the hope that is in you. When you have this kind of relationship with the Lord that Peter is talking about in this passage people will ask you about it.

    There are times in our relationship with GOD that it seems that He conceals Himself from us. What, if anything, is GOD doing when He plays "Hide & Seek" ?
