......And yet that help comes to us as we are in the trap of the hunter. It does not always come in such a way that we avoid the trap of the hunter. It seems God is not all that fussed about our being quarantined from threat or danger. It could even be said that God leaves it till the last minute in order to show us it is he alone who can rescue us. We are left at the end of our tether so that help when it comes can only be from God and not from our own resources.
We can safely rely on the help of God. But we can't readily presume on the shape it takes or the time it appears.
Faith is trusting that help will come, not knowledge of just how it will come.
