From one of my devotionals: Scripture teaches us to believe the promises of God. He is faithful. He has a future full of hope planned for us. He will protect us and provide for us. He knows what He is doing even if at times we are certain He does not. And yes, even at the times when He seems to be silent. Scriptures doesnt say that Hell always let us in on the play-by-play. We arent promised detailed descriptions, only that the final outcome will be for our good and His glory. By God not giving us explanations at each turn, it builds our faith. We can go to Him in prayer asking Him to calm our anxious hearts. We can ask Him to increase our faith so we arent consumed by the questions, and help us trust that He — the ever-wise parent — has good in mind for us. It is Gods job to unfold our future. It is our job to trust and glorify Him as He does. Lets stop asking Him to spiritually skywrite all the answers and lets write His promises on our hearts instead. And then? Lets live like we believe them. Dear Lord, help me each day to not seek explanations, but to seek a closer walk with You. In Jesus Name, Amen. posted by MC
