The Narrow Way

It’s easy to trust when the outcome is clear.
When the door opens fast.
When the miracle comes quickly.
When the “why” is revealed right after the “yes.”

But what about the spaces in between?
The wilderness between promise and fulfillment?
The hours between prayer and answer?

That’s where real trust is born.
Not in clarity
but in surrender.

Proverbs 3:5–6 says,
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding…”

That means even when it doesn’t make sense.
Even when it feels like God is quiet.
Even when what you see contradicts what He said.

Faith isn’t built on outcomes
it’s built on His character.

And if He was faithful before,
He’ll be faithful again.
Even here.
Even now.

You don’t have to know how He’ll do it.
You just have to know He will.

You may feel like you’re walking blind
but your steps are being ordered.
You may not see the whole path
but you’re being led by the One who carved it through the wilderness.

And when you feel tempted to go back
remember:
delay is not denial.
Silence is not absence.
The unknown is not abandonment.

You are not lost.
You are being led.

So trust Him.
With the timing.
With the outcome.
With the pieces you don’t understand yet.

Because one day,
when the pieces come together,
you’ll see it:
He wasn’t late. He was layering glory.
He wasn’t distant. He was drawing you deeper.

And the outcome?
It may look different than you imagined.
But it will always—always—be good.

Because He is.
