Unwavering Faith — Part 1
“The cloud is consumed and vanisheth away” (Job 7:9).
The captain of the ship goes on to relate,
“When asked if he knew how thick the fog around the ship was, Mr. Müller replied, ‘No, my eye is not on the density of the fog, but on the living God who controls every circumstance of my life.’ He then knelt down and prayed one of the most simple prayers I have ever heard. When finished I was going to pray, but he put his hand on my shoulder and told me not to pray. ‘As you do not believe He has lifted the fog, there is no need whatever for you to pray about it.’
“I looked at him and George Müller said, ‘Captain, I have known my Lord for 57 years and there has never been a single day when I failed to get an audience with the King. Get up, Captain, and open the door and you will find the fog has gone.’
“I got up and the fog was indeed gone, and on that Saturday afternoon George Müller kept his promised engagement.”
What a lesson from a man of faith, and we are told, “Whose faith follow” (Hebrews 13:7).
