Soul Stirrings (Book 1 Excerpt)
CHAPTER 1
WHEN YOU WONDER WHY
TRUST IN THE WISDOM OF THE DIVINE
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths" x(Proverbs 3:5-6)
Have you ever stood in the silence of your soul, staring into the abyss of unanswered questions? Have you ever whispered into the darkness, Why, Lord? —only to be met with silence? Life often presents us with trials that shake our foundation, moments that leave us bewildered and searching for meaning. We grapple with the weight of adversity, the sting of suffering, and the seemingly relentless storm clouds that overshadow our joy.
The human heart longs for understanding. It seeks reasons, explanations, and clarity. Yet, there are moments when the answers we crave remain beyond our grasp. In these moments, we are left with a choice: Will we succumb to the gnawing doubts that seek to unravel our faith, or will we surrender to the wisdom of the Almighty, trusting that His unseen hand is guiding us through even the darkest valleys?
Faith calls us to trust a God whose perspective far exceeds our own. Instead of demanding explanations, we are invited to rest in the assurance that He is working all things together for our good (Romans 8:28). In the face of trials, our posture should be one of surrender—choosing trust over comprehension, faith over fear, and confidence in divine wisdom over reliance on our limited understanding.
When we wonder why, we do not necessarily require answers but rather an unwavering faith in the divine wisdom that guides our journey. We are prompted to shift our focus from pursuing answers to pursuing wisdom. Unlike mere answers, wisdom offers us greater insight into life's complexities. It equips us to navigate the storms with grace and resilience, aware that even within the darkest nights, a glimmer of light beckons us homeward.
When The Answers Don’t Come
It is natural to want clarity—to seek meaning during our trials. We long to know why hardships befall us, why our prayers seem unanswered, and why pain accompanies our journey. Yet, God calls us not to understanding but to trust. True faith does not demand explanations; it rests in the unshakable confidence that He is sovereign and good, even when life does not make sense.
