Praising God in the Dark

In our songs we affirm how true God’s truth is; in our prayers we bring our bewilderment into his presence. . . . We know from Scripture that what seems like delay is full of mercy (2 Peter 3:1–9). . . . Our prayers may not prompt the Second Coming before a noon deadline, but they will bring the Lord Jesus into our lives, needs, and circumstances.
