🪞 Reflection
Ask yourself:
Am I allowing opposition to make me doubt God’s plan?
Where do I need to trust God more deeply?
What would change if I remembered that God is still sovereign over my circumstances?
You don’t have to control everything around you. Trust God, remain faithful, and keep walking forward. 🩵👑
🙏🏾 Prayer
Father God, help me trust Your authority when circumstances around me feel uncertain. Give me courage when I face opposition and wisdom when I don’t understand what You are doing. Help me remain faithful to You, place my trust in You, and find refuge in Your presence. Keep my heart focused on Your purpose and Your truth. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
