Pray, wait, trust that is the motto of a Christian. — Are there any circumstances in your life that have you saying, “I just don’t see how any good can ever come of this?” Are you terrified this new year won’t be any different?
I know how discouraging those feelings can be.
But when we look at difficult situations in our lives, we have to know there is so much more going on than what we can immediately see. There is the physical reality we see, but at the same time, there's also the miraculous God is working. And those two things are simultaneously operating.
It’s like flying in a plane. When we’re sitting on the runway and we look up to see stormy skies, we say, "This is a rainy day." But when we take off and the pilot breaks through the clouds, we find the sun is still shining above the clouds. So, then we say, "Well, this is a sunny day." Which is it? Is it a sunny day, or is it a cloudy day? It's both.
This is how I'm learning to look at circumstances in my life. Is this a bad circumstance, or is it a good circumstance? It's usually both.
And that’s why I want to be a gentle voice of encouragement to you today. I don’t want the bad that you see right now to convince you that there isn’t any good on the horizon. Just because you don’t clearly see God’s work at this moment doesn’t mean He’s not working.
Even if you can't see the miraculous. Even if you can't see the good. Good is still being worked out. God is Good all the time. Trust Him. Your answers are coming in due time. God speed to you! In your waiting praise Him in the hallway! This is your month of Blessings. Amen.
Stay blessed! ⭐
