Unblinded Faith: Open Your Eyes To God’s Promisesಮಾದರಿ
Knowing God
Maybe you’re like me: You want to believe the Bible is indeed true, but differing viewpoints, the noise of this world and the trials of life make that challenging. I get it. Life is hard and confusing and filled with wandering and wondering about the goodness of God and promises found in His Word.
Doubting God’s goodness is my ongoing challenge, even though I can recount to you the amazing, miraculous ways I’ve witnessed His hand at work. You name it; I’ve been well acquainted with trouble of every kind. But come to think of it, it sounds exactly like what God has already told us we’ll be up against.
Trust me, some days I tell God I wish trouble would find someone else to hang out with. Even while my feelings of hurt and confusion tell me otherwise, I know the truth deep that God is still our sovereign Lord, who has not removed His hand from our fallen world.
When trouble abounds, God is still on the throne.
The challenges we face daily will tempt us to despair, making it hard to trust that His ways are indeed perfect. We can’t skirt around pain. We can’t control the future. But we can trust in God when the trials of life are breaking upon us like ocean waves before a storm.
Isn’t that what you truly crave? Not necessarily a faith that is an insurance policy against suffering—because that just doesn’t exist—but rather, a deeply rooted faith that is unwavering through trials?
Right here, I’m asking God to reveal His truth to you in a fresh way and to give you a longing to know Him through Scripture.
No matter our story, no matter what is happening presently and no matter what the future holds, God is who He says He is and will honor His promises to us until kingdom come. May you be inspired to begin every day with unblinded faith in those promises.
