In discussion with my husband the other night about trusting God, we started to highlight where God had answered our prayers from times past, even when we didn't see at the time. In the midst of questions, in God's way and timing, He unfolded the answers. Times come when we don't have the answers, it seems God isn't listening. During these times, that's where Faith becomes real and Trust a companion.
One thing I've learned and am learning as a Christian, is that I need to rely on God and not my own understanding of things..who knew? 😊 His way is not our way, His thoughts are not our thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9. Is it easy? No. Is this Faith walk a daily mission? Yes. There are days when Faith is tested, but God ask us to Trust Him. The good news is that I don't have to have all the answers, I just need to stay close to the one who does. Jesus holds our present and future and it's good to know that His answers are good for us.
Proverbs 3:5-6New International Version (NIV)
5 Trust in the Lord (Jesus) with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.
Along those lines, I'm so thankful for how God never fails. From start to finish, He is Faithful to see one through.
Even if we may not see or understand for the moment, God hears and answers perfectly every time.
