"Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind or the mystery of a tiny baby growing in its mother's womb, so you cannot understand the activity of God, who does all things."

Ecclesiastes 11:5

I have a young daughter who often asks me, "Mama, do you know everything?" This is a very humbling moment for me, as you can imagine, as there are many things I don't understand. For example, how does your skin hold you all together, yet it's so fragile that even paper can cut it? How do galaxies keep going and never end? How does God make every snowflake unique?

I can become overwhelmed by what I don't know, and there will be many times that I won't understand what God is doing in my life. I have the choice as to how I handle those conflicting feelings. I can choose to trust, even when I am filled with doubt, and I can choose to press on, even though I am weak and worn.

Even if my mind can't comprehend it, I can rest in the fact that He is working it out for my good. His ways are so much higher than ours, and the plan He has for our lives is so intricate and beautiful.

If you are in a season of uncertainty and questions, you aren't alone. Feeling doubt and worry is a normal human response, but that does not change the fact that He still reigns and is in absolute control.

Even if we have moments of uncertainty, we don't have to remain there. We can surrender our questions, fear and anxiety to Him today. He has been and will always be victorious - He cannot fail!
