Habakkuk expresses what we often feel: overwhelmed by our difficulties and troubled by the fact that God seems unwilling to help us.
We find ourselves praying: "Why do you let this happen? Don't you see? Can't you do anything? Don't you care? How long will you let this go on?"
And God responds: "The vision...will not disappoint; if it delays, wait for it, it will surely come, it will not be late."
