“The hardest part about being a Christian is...”
One can fill in the statement above with a whole bunch of things – but the short answer, and ultimately, God’s answer to our worries, fears, trials, and things we can’t currently understand is, to have FAITH – and let God do HIS part in things we have no clue about or ability to change - but that HE doe have! Nonetheless, while we know we should trust God, yet we still typically wanna know a lot of stuff first, right?
We say:
“Lord, show me the way.” “Lord, how can I know?” “God, can’t you see what is happening to me?” “How can this or that be?” "What am I supposed to do?!!!" “Unless I see this or that evidence, I can’t believe!” And so we complain that “trust and obey” is often way too difficult, seems irrational - almost superstitious!
It’s easy to trust God when everything seems fantastic and it’s all “blue skies and rainbows." But it’s when things get tough that we find our faith tested.
