Chris Llewellyn: I Thought That When You Prayed You Got Miracles?

He draws us to himself.

When the prayer of a parent for the healing of their child goes unanswered it can cause anyone to lose their faith. Chris Llewellyn from Rend Collective is our guest and he brings a devotional that shares some of his personal experiences in an honest and transparent way. During a very difficult time in Chris’s life he clung to this scripture: 

2 Timothy 2:13 (NIV) …if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.

Even if we don’t have enough faith during lifes most difficult times, God remains faithful. 

“We went into a doctor’s office and we didn’t know what to expect, but we had prayed all the right prayers, and me coming from a charismatic background, I thought that was how it worked. I thought you prayed and you got miracles. I had never experienced that moment before, where you don’t get the miracle, or at least it doesn’t show up in the way that you expect.” – – Chris Llewellyn
