2 Corinthians 5:7 says we live by faith not by sight. Although we can't see what's ahead of us or know what will happen next we must continue to have faith in God knowing He's got our back. Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Therefore, we know the God we serve doesn't want to do us any harm so we must trust, obey, and follow Him. It's like when I first got "Tammy" my GPS. She would say, "turn right'" and I would be like she don't know what she's talking about and I'd turn left. Tammy would then recalculate and direct me from where I was to the destination I was trying to get to. After awhile I realized that no matter which wrong turn I made, Tammy somehow was still going to get me where I needed to go. I now have faith in her. That's like us and God. It takes time to build that relationship, but once it's built there's no reason why we shouldn't have faith in Him. And He, better than Tammy, will always steer us in the right direction. We just have to choose to listen, be obedient and follow directions, and have faith that He'll get us where we need to be.
