When life doesn’t make sense, and maybe God doesn’t make sense. What do you do? There have likely been times in your life when you thought God failed. How did you handle that?
I appreciate this. You captured something I’ve seen in my own life: we have to face what’s real, what we’re living, what we’re feeling, what’s right in front of us. That’s the truth of our situation. But there’s always a deeper truth beyond what we see and feel. The giants may be there, the furnace may be real, but God is bigger, and we are never alone.
It may look like God has failed, but He never has. Time always proves Him faithful. I love the way you wrote this. It’s solid, honest truth, and I know it’s going to help a lot of folks. I hope everyone reading will subscribe and keep learning from what God is showing you. Thank you for letting us see the Father’s heart in these words.
Thank you so much for your words they really touched my heart You are right we have to face what is real what we are walking through what we feel deeply in our souls But thank God that is not the only truth The pain might be present but so is His presence The giants may be standing tall but our God stands taller The Lord is my light and my salvation whom shall I fear The Lord is the stronghold of my life of whom shall I be afraid Psalm 27:1 When we walk through the fire it is not just about surviving it is about realizing we are not alone Just like Shadrach Meshach and Abednego in the furnace Look I see four men walking around in the fire and the fourth looks like a son of the gods Daniel 3:25 God never promised we would not face the fire but He did promise He would be with us in it
Even when it looks like God is silent or things are falling apart His faithfulness still holds Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess for he who promised is faithful Hebrews 10:23
Time always proves Him true even when we cannot see it in the moment
I am grateful that something in the words spoke to your heart We need more of this real conversation raw honesty and unwavering hope rooted in truth We live by faith not by sight :2 Corinthians 5:7 Thank you again for sharing this encouragement It reminds me we are in this together carrying light lifting each other and showing the world that God really is enough
Thank you for this heartfelt and deeply honest reflection. It’s comforting to be reminded that even biblical heroes went through confusion, grief, and seasons when God’s hand seemed invisible. Your reminder that God can handle our full hearts even the hurting, doubting parts is one I needed today
Thank you for sharing this deeply moving and honest reflectionMy heart aches over the tragedy in KerrvilleSo many families devastated and yet in the midst of this darkness your words shine with the light of hope and truthLike you said people are asking Where was GodAnd I believe its okay to ask thatEven Jesus on the cross cried out My God My God why have You forsaken MeMatthew 27:46 In moments like these its not doubt its raw honest faith wrestling with sorrow Your words about being angry or disappointed with God resonatedI have been there too wondering why prayers werent answered the way I had hopedBut I am reminded of Psalm 34:18The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spiritHe is not far off He is right there in the flood in the fire in the unanswered questions Thank you for how you are guiding Levi with grace and wisdomWhat a powerful image of a grandfather sowing truth in the heart of the next generationGod is surely using those ping pong games and Sonic trips to plant seeds that will bear eternal fruit Proverbs 22:6 says Train up a child in the way he should go even when he is old he will not depart from it The reminders of Gods faithfulness through the lives of Joseph Daniel and the three Hebrew boys were powerfulTheir stories show us that God does not always remove the hardship but He walks with us through itIsaiah 43:2 assures us When you pass through the waters I will be with you when you walk through the fire you shall not be burnedHe is not a distant observer He is the fourth Man in the fire The most comforting truth you shared is that God cannot failThat is a promise we can anchor our souls toRomans 8:28 reminds us And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love HimEven when we do not see it even when our hearts are shattered God is working I am praying for the people of Kerrville for every grieving family for the lost to be found for the wounded to be healed and for the church to be a beacon of Christs love in this stormMay Revelation 21:4 be more than a distant hope may it be the banner over every broken heartHe will wipe away every tear from their eyesThere will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain Thank you again for pouring your heart outMay God bless you and Kristi richly as you continue to love and lead with compassion and truthPlease keep writingWe need your voice
