Jesus answered and said, ’You do not know what you ask’ —Matthew 20:22
We are not meant to always understand what God is doing in our lives. Spiritual confusion is natural and should be expected. If we hold to basic truths we can walk through periods of confusion. We must hold on to the fact that God is God; God is in control. God loves us. God is all powerful. God wants the best for us. Sometimes it may seem that God is not in control or that He doesn’t love us or can’t handle some situation or delights in our discomfort. These things are never true.
When we are challenged with these assault on our basic faith our response is to keep on walking, to keep on trusting, to keep on believing. Eventually, the fog will clear and we will, once again discover that hindsight is 20/20. When will look back on what has happened, His faithfulness, power, control and love for us will, once again be proven.
Is this a period of spiritual clarity or spiritual fog? It matters not. Walk on child of God. Your Father in heaven loves you and leads you onward.
Be blessed.
