[:en]HOW LONG?
The prophet Habakkuk cried out to the Lord: “How long, Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen; Or cry out to you, ‘Violence!’, but you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrongdoings? Habakkuk was waiting for God to intervene. But it seemed that God was doing nothing.
Many times in our life, we also experience how Habakku felt. We also ask : “How long before justice prevails in our world? How long will my sickness be cured? How long can I be free from indebtedness? How long should I suffer from my trials?
Even when we feel as if God is doing nathing, we have to continuosly cast our burdens on Him because He cares for us. God hears us and, in His time, He will give an answer. Do not despair because of evil. God will always have the last word. – (Karen Wolfe)[:]
