There are moments in life when the weight of fear doesn’t just knock at the door—it floods in, overflowing the boundaries of our hearts. When your chest feels tight, your prayers feel unanswered, and the sky seems bronze with silence, remember this: you are not alone, and you are not forgotten.
“When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.” – Psalm 56:3
Maybe you're in a season where the hours crawl by and the storm won't settle. The wind is loud, the sea refuses to calm, and your soul is weary from waiting. You’ve done everything you know how to do, but still, the breakthrough hasn’t come. The silence feels deafening. The uncertainty feels unbearable. And it's easy to start wondering if God sees you at all—if He hears, if He cares, if He’s still writing your story.
But the truth is, He does see. He does hear. He is still at work.
Even when you can’t feel Him, He is near. Even when you can’t trace His hand, His heart is steady toward you. There’s nothing wrong with having questions, with aching, with asking, “Why?” But in the midst of that ache, there is a deeper invitation—to trust. Not because the situation makes sense, but because He is trustworthy even when life is not.
Faith often looks like believing in the dark what God promised in the light. It means saying, “I don’t understand, but I will trust You anyway.” It means standing firm when your knees are shaking and whispering, “God, I choose You even now.”
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight” – Proverbs 3:5-6
Remember, that the waiting seasons are where God does the deepest work in us. He is not wasting your time—He is shaping your character, strengthening your spirit, and preparing you for what’s ahead. The storm might not make sense, but it is not without purpose. And it will not last forever.
The same God who calmed the sea with a word, who raised the dead with a whisper, who healed the blind with a touch—that God is holding your life right now. He hasn’t forgotten you. He hasn’t changed His mind about you. He knows the exact moment your breakthrough will come. And until that moment arrives, His invitation is simple but powerful: Trust Me. Rest in Me. I take care of you.
“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” – 1 Peter 5:7
So breathe. You don’t have to carry it all. You don’t have to have the answers. You just have to keep actively waiting on God, one step at a time, with your eyes on the One who does. Trust Him—not because you feel strong, but because He is. Trust Him with your questions, with your pain, with your tomorrow. Because even now, in the waiting, He is taking care of you.
