“God, if this is where You want me, then I’ll trust You.” ❤️
There are moments when life doesn’t look anything like what you prayed for.
The door didn’t open.
The opportunity disappeared.
The relationship changed.
The plan fell apart.
And suddenly, you’re standing in a place you never expected to be.
You start asking, “God, why?”
But maybe the better prayer is:
“God, what are You teaching me here?”
Because sometimes God changes our direction without explaining every detail.
Sometimes He removes what we wanted because He knows what we need.
Sometimes He makes us wait because He is preparing us for something we aren’t ready to carry yet.
“The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.” Proverbs 16:9 (ESV)
So I don’t want to run ahead of God just because I’m uncomfortable.
I don’t want to force a door He hasn’t opened.
I don’t want to choose my own way simply because His way requires patience.
I want to trust Him.
Even when I don’t understand.
Even when I’m disappointed.
Even when I’m waiting.
Because God sees what I cannot see.
He knows what I cannot know.
And He is faithful even when my circumstances don’t make sense.
So today, I surrender my plans.
My timeline.
My expectations.
My fears.
God, You can have it all.
Lead me where You want me to go.
Close the doors You don’t want me walking through.
Open the doors You have prepared.
And give me the faith to follow You wherever You lead.
It’s alright, God.
I may not understand Your plan…
but I trust Your heart. ❤️
