It can be hard to trust God’s plan when all we can see is our own. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a flowchart telling us exactly how to plan and prepare? Or quick footnotes to explain how difficulties will turn out for our good and His glory? How convenient that would be! The guesswork of life would be gone, but unfortunately, so would our faith. The Bible teaches us that faith is believing and trusting in what we can’t see (Hebrews 11), and this includes God’s plan for our lives. Regardless of how little we understand His intricate picture, we can trust God has a beautiful purpose for our lives. Psalm 138:8 says the Lord will not forsake the work of His hands. He will never abandon us, and this promise is demonstrated by His steadfast love. His love and purpose endure forever. Let's Pray.
