"Just Need To Trust And Obey"
Psalm 25:4-5 NLT
Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow.  Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me.  All day long I put my hope in you.

The other day, I was reading a devotional from a friend of mine and it was titled "I have no words".  I know that he is going through a very rough time in life and just expressed that he didn't have the words to convey how he really felt.  I honestly felt myself feeling the exact same thing.  Knowing his situation and thinking of the difficult challenges my family has experienced lately and so many others have been experiencing lately and for a while now, I find myself at a loss for words.

I am finding myself these days asking so many more questions to God and feeling like I don't know the answers.  I'm finding myself asking these questions so often to God:

Why are you allowing this pain?
Why are so many hurting?
Why won't you stop and intervene?
When will this pandemic end?
Why do so many have to be so sick?
Why am I facing so many challenges in life?
Why can't You explain and show me more?

As I'm thinking of these questions and have so many more thoughts and feelings, I'm realizing even more and more now that I must trust Him in every way, even though there's so much more I don't understand.  I just need Him to show me the path and to lead me in His truth.  I need to hope in Him, no matter what. 

I need to trust and obey, even when life doesn't make sense.
