Sometimes it is very hard to understand God’s will

Sometimes it is very hard to understand God’s will in our lives. Years of cumulative stress and trauma can make us doubt. We cannot conceive that our suffering is actually the work of the Lord, in order for us to achieve the amazing path He has laid out for us.

God hears and answers our prayers. He is always in motion on our behalf. Oftentimes our answers to prayer come in unexpected ways. A continued conversation with our Father helps us recognize His movement in our lives. Prayer is akin to seeing from a different perspective. Sometimes answers to prayer are obvious, miraculous, and very direct. Other times, obtaining a Christ-like perspective takes spiritual, mental, and perhaps physical growing pains. No matter what way they come, answers to prayer move mountains in our lives.
