Trusting God When You Don’t Understand

Adapted from My Time with God

Jesus said to him, You do not understand now what I am doing, but you will understand later on.

The thing that is the most difficult for me (and that I despise the most) may be the thing God uses to change me. Transformation rarely comes when we are continually joyful, and all is perfect in our circumstances. God wants to make us strong spiritually, and that requires trusting Him when nothing makes sense to us.

I have found that those things I once thought were my worst enemy eventually became my friends because they pushed me deeper into my walk with God. When God is all we have, we usually tend to hold on to Him tightly and we get to know Him very well.

Prayer of the Day: Father, I know nothing can separate me from Your love, so when life hurts, help me to use it in order to drive me closer to You. Help me embrace these challenges and teach me to trust You deeply in all things, amen.
