A word in season for me! My husband has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. I've been asking 'why, God?' And then feeling guilty about doing so. Your message gives me encouragement!
It isn’t as if He doesn’t know everything I think and feel anyway. I can’t hide this from Him.
I can, not understand, AND trust He does, at the same time.
I too have had many seasons of great pain (physical and phycological). I see now many amazing things have come out of these seasons. As a result my faith is solid. I desire to serve Him every day of my life.
I use these things to grow, to be a better and a healthier human.
I know He will remove the diseases that cause the physical pain if it will serve me and His kingdom. I have returned to healthy living. My body is temple through which He works.
I know He will give me the ability to walk through the emotional healing because He wants what’s best for me and I will be better equipped to be of service to His kingdom.
But still… I will never understand most things that happen in this broken world. He does. That’s enough 💜
Thank you for sharing this. Yes, you can still have faith, even in moments when we admit we do not understand. I have clung to this passage in John where Jesus tells us that "later we will understand." We may never gain full understanding, but we can still cling to the promise that He is faithful and will use the challenges we encounter for good. May you have a blessed day.
Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.” John 13:7
I needed this. God brought me here! When I question things, when I’m not able to simply accept in simple faith what doesn’t ’make sense’, I am filled with sorrow. My whole chest aches and I feel the Spirit to the point of tears. Reading this makes me feel it isn’t disapproval, but a reassuring hug.

I’ve got you in my prayers Sue. I pray God’s peace and strength pours over you and your family through this time ❤️
I find myself saying this often to Him.
“God, I just don’t understand…”

Thank you so much for sharing a piece of your own journey ❤️ you said it perfectly… He does, that’s enough.
Like a supernatural vitamin supplement, God has kindly
given us the book of Proverbs,
comprised of 31 chapters, it’s
an incredible opportunity to
draw more closely to Him each
day of every month, while gaining
understanding of who He is, and
how He is. But never rush through
God’s holy written words, because
they will provide nourishment and new
revelations all the days of your lives.
When a situation gets so complicated by no one's fault, it's just hard to understand the why. But I'm good as long as I understand the who.
Absolutely 💯 God is always in control ❤️

Absolutely 💯 what a great verse to cling to. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That was because he was sending the Holy Spirit. We need to connect to the Holy Spirit for clarity. John 14:26.
