We go about life and business as usual, standing on the rock of our salvation. When giving up is not an option and giving over to God is the only option. Trusting in Him for the outcome and even if it doesn’t play out the way we had hoped we will still praise Him and serve Him.

To the natural man (even in ourselves), this does not make sense. How can you just be calm about the situation when it seems like everything is falling apart around you. The bible says we are more than conquerors through Him that loves us [paraphrase] (Rom 8 v 37) and “we can do all things through Him that strengthens us” (Phil 4 v 13).

Hebrews 11 says “Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen“. The kind of faith that would make one believe without having to see. Trust without having to feel. Hope without having to know the outcome. This is the faith we signed up for. Stand tall, knowing the Lord is who He says He is and allow His will to be done. He will not disappoint.
