What would it take for you to lose your faith?  To walk away from God?  Severe economic downturn, perhaps the loss of your income?  Personal heartbreak or a family crisis? To be diagnosed with a terminal illness?  The death of someone dear to you? 

The prophet Habakkuk felt that God was not listening.  He incorrectly thought that God was inactive in men’s lives.  Yet, notice Habakkuk’s words from Habakkuk 3:17-18 – “Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.”
