Your Question:
can i still trust god?
Answer:
My friend, I completely understand your question. As a man of faith, I've had my share of struggles and doubts. But I've come to realize that trusting God is not about relying on our own common sense or understanding. It's about having a deep, unwavering faith in Him, even when things don't go as planned. I've learned that God's silence is not a sign of His displeasure, but rather a time of discipline, where we're called to wait upon Him and be grounded in His presence. For me, trusting God has been a journey of growth and learning. I've come to understand that faith is not just about getting answers to our prayers, but about trusting in God's goodness and sovereignty, even when we don't understand what's happening. It's about learning to trust in His character, rather than just His blessings. As the scripture says, "Once we truly see God at work, we will never be concerned again about the things that happen, because we are actually trusting in our Father in heaven, whom the world cannot see." (October 24, The Proper Perspective) So, can you still trust God? Absolutely! Trusting God is not about our circumstances or our feelings, but about our faith in Him. It's about learning to trust in His goodness, even when things don't go as planned. As I've learned, trust in God is not something that we develop overnight, but it's a journey that we take one step at a time. It's about learning to trust in His presence, His character, and His sovereignty, even when we don't understand what's happening.
