Everyone will face trials and challenges in life. When we are taken into the next level of maturity through hardships, we expect immediate help and answers from God. Yet there are ti mes when God seems to delay His response , or answers us not according to our expectations. At times like this, we have to trust Him and hold on to His promises by faith. This book studies biblical characters who went through periods where God seems to be temporarily silent before they received the promised victories. As we learn from those who have gone ahead of us, God is Emmanuel. He is always with us and will never leave us nor forsake us. Thus, despite His silence, He remains faithful, because His silence does not mean that He is absent.
