In thick of a crisis, it’s easy to focus on the crisis, and neglect turning all the variables over to our Father. But the examples given in Scripture demonstrate that is very possible to trust God regardless of what is happening. Joseph suffered horrible circumstances time after time yet God looked out for him. Daniel trusted God despite all odds. Hebrews 11 talks about a hall of fame for those who demonstrated faith even though many never saw the outcome of being faithful. For me, I’m getting better at remembering verses that promise God is faithful and several songs help to remind me. Journaling has been a huge help, often documenting prayers.
