Despite your efforts to find hope and reassurance, you may find yourself struggling to make sense of the chaos and disappointment. Your prayers may seem unanswered, and you may feel abandoned and lost in the midst of it all. But remember, even in the darkest moments, God’s goodness can still be found, and a shift in perspective may unveil His loving purpose for your life.

Key Takeaways:

  • Train your eye to see God’s goodness in life’s unexpected transitions
  • Foster a trust relationship with God during unwanted  circumstances

  • Explore parallels between life’s detours and the detours Moses experienced

  • Embrace God’s supreme power and benevolence even in challenging circumstances

My special guest is Sarah Frazer:

Welcome to an individual whose deep-seated faith in Jesus has influenced her life journey profoundly – Sarah Frazer. Alongside her family, Sarah lived in Honduras as a missionary and found strength in her faith when her life underwent an unexpected and dramatic shift. Sarah has infused her unique experiences of adoption, missions, and passion for God’s Word into her writing. Her debut book, born out of her resilience and faith, provides comfort to individuals navigating through unexpected shifts in their lives that can often leave one disoriented.

Quotes:

“The Lord has proven Himself faithful in my life [and] that I can’t unsee.” – Sarah Frazer

“Do I really believe it? I’ve had friends walk away asking that question. And then I’ve had friends face even worse circumstances. I have faced and seen their faith blossom and grow.” – Sarah Frazer

“What shifted for me, even just in this last year that I still am really wrestling with is Romans 8:28 that says all things work together for good. We just quote Romans 8:28, but if you read 8:29, it says to be conformed to his image. So if things, all things are currently working for my good, what is the good? What is the good that we have? The good is that we’re becoming more like Christ. And ouch, that is sometimes that’s painful.” –Sarah Frazer

Wrestling with Uncertainties and Queries

An integral part of faith is the act of wrestling with doubts and questions. As Sarah highlighted, such questioning is not a sign of weak faith but an opportunity for personal growth and faith deepening. Navigating doubts while seeking God allows for a deeper understanding of Him and reaffirms His unchanging love, even during periods of uncertainty.
