In John 13:7 Jesus said, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”

Sometimes we just don’t understand why the Lord allows certain things to happen to us, and it’s hard to trust when we can’t see, but we’re called to “walk by faith, not by sight”. 

Remember that Jesus is always fighting for you, he’s always holding you close and he’s always working for your good. Deuteronomy 31:6 encourages us to, “be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

So don’t lose hope. No matter how dark things may look, remember that Jesus is the light of the world and whoever follows him will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Let me pray for you:

Father,

Help us trust you even when we cannot see. Remind us that you bring good from evil, light from darkness and hope from despair. 

You are a good father who loves us. Thank you for all the blessings you’ve given us.
