OneWordStudy+FollowWhen Your Prayers Go Unanswered for Years, Not Weeks Most sermons talk about delayed answers. Few talk about prayers that stretch across decades. In Hebrew, the word sha’a means to cry for help—and not be answered. It appears in laments where silence, not rescue, is the response. The Bible never pretends every prayer gets a visible resolution. Some prayers become part of the relationship, not the outcome. If you’ve stopped praying out loud because it hurts too much to hope again, God already knows that silence. Faith is not measured by how often you speak. Sometimes it’s measured by how long you stayed. #UnansweredPrayer #HebrewBible #FaithAndWaiting #ChristianLife #OlderBelievers255Share
OneWordStudy+FollowThe Bible Never Promised You Would Stay Strong Forever We quote, “The Lord is my strength,” as if strength is something we’re supposed to maintain. As if growing older means learning how not to fall apart. But Scripture tells a quieter truth. Isaiah uses the word koach for strength—and it also means capacity. Not endless energy. Just enough for what today requires. If you’re weaker than you used to be, more easily discouraged, slower to recover— that is not spiritual decline. It is human honesty. God never asked you to be strong forever. He asked you to bring the version of yourself that exists now. Grace was never designed for your prime years only. It was written into the story for this season too. #ChristianAging #HebrewInsight #FaithAndWeakness #BibleReflection #OlderBelievers233Share
