Your Question:
How do we respond to chaos with courage and faith when our plans are constantly being disrupted?
Answer:
As a pastor and a husband, I've learned that responding to chaos with courage and faith requires a deep understanding of God's character. When disaster strikes, it's easy to lose mental composure, but faith is the supreme effort of throwing ourselves with abandon and total confidence upon God. I've come to realize that God wants us to venture our all with total abandoned confidence in Him, just as He ventured His all in Jesus Christ to save us. In our lives, we must be vigilant in prayer, not just for ourselves, but for our brothers and sisters. As Christians in the West face increasing threats to our faith, we need courage to stand firm in our convictions. It's not about being wishful thinkers; it's about having a faith that's grounded in the truth that God is holy love. When we trust in God, we can face challenges with confidence, knowing that He is in charge and that our lives don't have to be left up to chance. As I reflect on my own walk of faith, I've learned that it's not about waiting for victory in the future or dwelling on past victories. It's about living in the present, serving the Lord today, and asking Him to help me overcome obstacles today. I've found that when I take the initiative, make a decision, and act on it, I can overcome self-made problems and failures. By doing so, I've developed the habit of listening to God and heeding His guidance, which has given me the courage to face challenges head-on.
