📖 Scripture

“But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.” — John chapter 5 verse 17

💬 Reflection

As we continue moving toward Easter, today’s truth is one that can completely change how you see your life: God is still working.

Not just in the big moments. Not just in the obvious ways. Not just when everything makes sense.

God is working right now—even in the unseen.

One of the hardest things about faith is learning to trust what you cannot see. We often measure progress by visible results. We look for signs that things are moving forward. We want confirmation that something is happening.

But God does not limit His work to what is visible.

Much of what He does happens beneath the surface.

Think about a seed planted in the ground. For a long time, nothing appears to be happening. The surface looks unchanged. There is no visible growth. But underneath, something powerful is taking place. Roots are forming. Life is developing. Growth is beginning.

Then, at the right time, it breaks through.

That is how God often works in your life.

There are seasons where it feels like nothing is happening. Prayers seem unanswered. Situations remain unchanged. Progress feels slow or nonexistent.

But that does not mean God is inactive.

It means He is working in ways you cannot yet see.

As we approach Easter, this becomes even more meaningful. The days leading up to the cross would have looked confusing and even discouraging. From a human perspective, it seemed like things were falling apart. Hope appeared to be slipping away.

But God was working.

Every moment, every event, every detail was part of a greater plan that would lead to the resurrection.

What looked like defeat was actually preparation for victory.

And the same is true in your life.

There may be areas where you feel stuck. You may be waiting for change, waiting for answers, waiting for something to move forward.

You may wonder if God hears your prayers. You may question whether anything is happening at all.

But God is working.

He is working in your circumstances.

He is working in your heart.

He is working in ways that will only become clear in time.

Sometimes God works by changing your situation. Other times, He works by changing you within the situation.

He strengthens your faith.

He deepens your trust.

He shapes your character.

He prepares you for what is ahead.

And often, you don’t realize what He was doing until later.

That is why faith is so important.

Faith allows you to trust that God is working, even when you cannot see evidence of it.

Faith keeps you moving forward, even when progress feels slow.

Faith reminds you that silence does not mean absence.

God is never inactive.

He is never distant.

He is never unaware.

He is always working.

So today, shift your perspective.

Instead of asking, “Why isn’t anything happening?” begin to ask, “God, what are You doing that I cannot see yet?”

Instead of focusing on what is missing, trust that something is being built.

Instead of losing hope, hold onto the truth that God is active in your life right now.

As Easter approaches, remember this: the greatest work God ever did came through a moment that looked like the end.

And if He could bring resurrection out of that, imagine what He is preparing in your life.

Even now.

Even here.

God is still working.

🙏 Prayer

Lord, thank You that You are always working, even when I cannot see it. Help me to trust You in the waiting and to believe that You are moving in my life. Strengthen my faith and give me patience as You work things out according to Your plan. Amen.
