I am in one of the hardest seasons of life I have ever experienced right now. Never have I been so powerless to stop what is unfolding. The causality rate is high. At times it feels like my heart is breaking over and over.
I tell myself that things will get better.
I pray for change or removal from the situation.
What do we do in the face of such adversity?
I had a conversation the other day where I was reminded that God is in control. That God orchestrates everything, good and bad, for my ultimate good. If that means that He is instituting a roadblock in order to get me to course correct, then He will do so. God is good. God is righteous. God is holy. I know that I need to cling to Him in order to get to the other side of this. But knowing and doing are two different things.
I know that I need to:
- Trust in the Lord (I’m trying).
- Delight in the Lord.
- Commit my path and this situation to the Lord (which I have).
- And then ultimately, rest in Him.
Knowing that I do not need to fight unless told to do so. God is in control of my circumstances. He wants what is best for me even if I cannot see that yet. My flesh screams that I need to fight, need to do something, anything. God calls me to rest in Him.

Bryan, not sure what you’re facing, but pray that you will know God as a” …very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1). He is near you, brother! You can cast all your cares on Him. He cares for you!
