In the Stresses of Life God can Still be Trusted

When Life Is Stressful We Can Still Trust In God

Friends, I am honored you are here. I pray you find encouragement as you listen.
When the winds of life continue to blow it’s easy for us to become tired. Tiredness ushers in doubt, and doubt, brings with it feelings of hopelessness. These are normal human emotions and a fairly normal cycle to fall into during seasons of persistent difficulty. When stresses are high it doesn’t seem to take much work to believe the negative reality around us that looks so real. A doubt-filled perspective becomes almost too easy to ignore. 

When we begin to accept the negative perspective as truth, that will not only affect our current state of mind, but also, our current view of God. This is why it’s so important that we continually persevere in clinging to the right beliefs about God, especially, in times of intense pressure. Even when we cannot make sense of what we are we are walking through, we can hold fast to who our God is. 

This is interesting, because, maintaining our right belief about God really isn’t tied to our circumstances… at all. This is hopeful for us, because, there is a space where we can rest in His goodness while everything around us shakes. There is peace in the unknown, because what is known to us, is enough.

There is the “normal” life, where we cycle in and out of endless insecurity and doubting the goodness of God. Or there is, as Watchmen Nee says, “the “normal” Christian life”, where we rest in the assurance of who He is despite what happens. So today, as you are facing your own personal stresses and tensions all tempting to lead into the easy path of hopeless doubt, choose trust. Choose it, because you don’t have to have all the answers to know that God is good. Choose trust, because there is more for you than a life of being a tired soul only beaten up by the struggle. You can be built up by it too!
