Sometimes the hardest part of walking with God is not knowing why.
Why does the road have to be this difficult?
Why does His promise seem so far away?
I have been thinking a lot about this during my own season of refinement. One thing I've learned is that God does not always explain what He is doing while He is doing it. Sometimes He asks us to trust Him without giving us the full picture.
The Narrow Road can feel confusing precisely because we cannot always see where it is leading. There are seasons when faith feels less like certainty and more like taking the next step because you know Who is walking with you.
And yet, looking back, I am beginning to see something: Not every difficult season is a sign that we have taken a wrong turn.
Some seasons are shaping us.
Some are purifying what needs to be purified.
Some are revealing what we have been holding onto.
Some are teaching us to distinguish God's voice from our own expectations.
And some are preparing us for something we cannot see yet.
This is also why I have been reflecting on the faithfulness of God's Word. If God has spoken, our inability to understand the process does not make His Word less true.
We may not understand the how.
We may not understand the when.
We may not even understand the why.
But we can still choose to trust the One who does.
I wrote more about these thoughts in my two latest articles. About God's Word, the Narrow Road, spiritual growth, and what it means to keep walking when you don't understand what God is doing.
If you're currently in a season that doesn't make sense, perhaps these reflections are for you.

You don't have to understand the whole road to take the next step. Just bloom as you are, where you are. You're not alone. He is there with you 💛
