Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. (Psalm 119:105)
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: (2 Peter 1:19)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Create even in the midst of complexity

God works in various and subtle ways, and His involvement in our lives may not always be clear. We may face situations that seem to contradict the promises of the Word, but we must hold fast to the principles of faith that the Word declares. Sometimes we may have to exercise faith in unexpected ways, such as believing that God is sovereign even when it seems like He hasn't heard our prayers. In all situations, we must remain attached to what we have learned from studying the Word and confidently declare the trustworthy promises of God's Word. Read more...

For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: (Proverbs 6:23)
O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles. (Psalm 43:3)
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: (2 Peter 1:19)
For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness. (Psalm 18:28)

Efigenia Vidal : Every day is a demonstration for those of us who believe in God, through His word, that only He knows how to shape the work that He began in each one of those who seek Him with a heart, confident that the Creator of everything we see and do not see with our eyes, is working in favor. In some He works faster than in others, it will depend on His purposes that He had already determined before founding the world. I can say with conviction that I have been praying for an answer for more than 2 years and 8 months now, I know that He will do justice, even if it seems that everything is against it, it is my faith and my confidence that the Great I Am will do it. God bless you.
