What do you do when life doesn’t make sense? When your plans fall apart, and the future looks uncertain? Many of us panic, worry, or try to fix things on our own. But what if the key to peace is not in what we can see, but in trusting the One who sees it all?
Trusting God means looking beyond what we can see to what He sees. Our sight is restricted by time, experience, and circumstances, but God sees the full picture. He knows the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10) and works all things together for our good (Romans 8:28). When we trust Him, we acknowledge that His wisdom surpasses ours, even when situations seem uncertain.
Abraham exemplified this faith when God asked him to leave his homeland without knowing his destination (Hebrews 11:8). He did not see the full plan, but he believed in the One who led him. Likewise, in our personal struggles—whether financial hardships, health crises, or unanswered prayers—faith urges us to hold on, knowing that God’s promises never fail.
Instead of being consumed by what we see, we must rest in what God has spoken. His Word assures us of His faithfulness, love, and provision. Trusting Him does not mean ignoring reality; it means believing that beyond the visible, God is working out something greater than we can imagine.
So, when life feels uncertain, shift your focus from what is seen to what God sees. His vision is perfect, His plans are sure, and His promises are unfailing. Keep trusting!
