Your Question:

Can I really trust God when I'm feeling so lost?

Answer:

My friend, I can sense the weight of uncertainty and fear that's pressing upon you. It's natural to feel lost, especially when life's challenges seem insurmountable. But I want you to know that there is a way out. It starts with recognizing that fear and hopelessness often lead to a reluctance to trust God for the future. But God promises to give us the grace to handle life's disappointments, if we choose to live for Him in the present.

As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with this same issue. They want to trust God, but they're not sure if they can. The truth is, trusting God isn't about relying on our own common sense or trying to work for Him. It's about surrendering to His presence and power in our lives. We must learn to go beyond our confidence in ourselves and others, and place our trust in God alone. As the Bible says, "Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus" (Philippians 1:6). God is at work in you, even when you can't see it.

So, I want to ask you, do you trust God, even when life gets tough? Or do you rely on worldly opinion and your own strength? Remember, God doesn't expect you to endure in your own power. He wants you to respond to Him in faith, even when you don't understand what's happening. As I always say to my congregation, "Trust in God, and He will give you the strength to face whatever comes your way."
