Learning to Trust

November 2, 2025

I’ve been working on the website during my off hours — trying to create a place where people can listen to the music, read the lyrics, and soon, share their prayer requests. It’s been both exhausting and exciting to see it evolve.

The past few days haven’t been without challenges. I’ve felt this constant pull to share what’s in my head, so I’ve been writing more than I ever have before. But even in the middle of all this growth, I keep bumping into the same truth — I still have a lot of work to do inside.

My mind’s a monster sometimes. I struggle with the contradictions between my actions and my faith. If I truly believe God is in control, why do I keep trying to take charge of every part of my life instead of resting in His truth? If I trust God with my life, why do I still fear the opposition?

So tonight, I pray:

Lord, take these things from me.
Help me to trust You in a way I never have before.
Grow my faith so I can be strong for You.
Teach me to rest in Your control, even when I don’t understand the plan.
