Have you ever found yourself praying for something so deeply that it feels like every fiber of your being is crying out to God? In Isaiah 65:24, God gives us a beautiful reminder that His care for us goes beyond our spoken words. He promises to answer even before we call, a declaration of His faithfulness and His deep understanding of our needs.

The movie Lion beautifully mirrors this truth through the story of Saroo. Though Saroo didn’t even know how to ask for help in the early years of his journey, the desire in his heart for restoration was like an unspoken prayer. Decades later, through extraordinary circumstances, Saroo is reunited with his birth mother, a reunion that felt orchestrated by the hand of God.

In the same way, our unspoken longings are fully known by God. Before our lips form the words, He hears the groaning of our hearts (Romans 8:26-27). Like Saroo’s journey home, God is working in ways we may not see or understand to bring His plans for us to fruition.

Today’s scripture invites us to trust in God’s timing and His faithfulness. He is already working on the answers to prayers we haven’t even thought to pray yet. When we feel lost, forgotten, or uncertain about the future, we can take comfort in knowing that God is several steps ahead, weaving together our story for His glory and our good.

Querido Padre Celestial,

Thank You that You know me so intimately that You answer before I even call. Help me to rest in Your faithfulness, even when I don’t see the full picture. I trust that You are working behind the scenes in my life, aligning everything for my good. Strengthen my faith to wait on You and to believe that Your answers are always on time. In the Name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

 

Think about a deep longing in your heart that you haven’t even been able to fully put into words. Spend time today simply sitting before God, trusting that He already knows and is at work.
