Your Question:
How do I trust God when everything feels like a disaster?
Answer:
My friend, I can sense the desperation in your question. It's as if you're standing at the edge of a cliff, feeling the winds of despair howling around you. But I want you to know that you're not alone. I, too, have walked through the valley of the shadow of death, and I've seen the hand of God working in the midst of disaster. It's a lesson I've learned from my own life, and from the lives of those around me. When everything feels like a disaster, it's easy to lose sight of God's holiness and love. It's easy to doubt His goodness and to question His presence. But I want to remind you that faith is not about having all the answers; it's about throwing yourself with abandon and total confidence upon God. It's about trusting that He is working, even when we can't see it. And it's about remembering that He has given us the gift of His Spirit to guide us, to comfort us, and to lead us through the darkest of times. So, what do we do when disaster strikes? We pray. We seek God's face, and we trust that He will give us the strength and the courage to face whatever comes our way. We remember that He is a holy God, who loves us with an unending love. And we trust that He will work all things out for our good, even when we can't see the way forward. As the Psalmist says, "Wait upon the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart" (Psalm 27:14).
