Some seasons in life are just plain hard. The kind that knocks the wind out of you and leaves you wondering if God sees, if He hears, if He cares.
But even in the most challenging moments, faith doesn’t mean pretending everything’s okay; it means trusting that God is still good even when everything around you feels broken.
Hebrews 11:1 reminds us that “faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Faith holds on when the outcome is unclear. It whispers, “God is with you,” when your heart feels alone. It doesn’t erase the pain, but it invites peace into the middle of it.
If you’re walking through a dark valley right now, know this: you are not forgotten. God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He is working even in what you can’t yet see. Your job isn’t to fix it all; it’s to take the next step, even a small one, in trust.
Keep showing up. Keep praying, even when the words feel empty. Keep looking for His presence in quiet places. And know this: the God who holds the stars also has you, and He’s not letting go.
You’re not walking through this alone. And you don’t need to muster perfect faith. Just enough to say, “Lord, I trust You, even here.” That’s more than enough.
