Ada sat at the edge of her bed, holding her phone, staring at yet another rejection email.
She laughed, not the joyful kind, but the kind that hides frustration.
She whispered under her breath, “God, what exactly am I doing wrong?”
Everything felt confusing.
She had prayed, done her best, believed, yet every door seemed to close.
It felt like God was silent — like Heaven was on “do not disturb.”
But what Ada didn’t know was that even when life feels blurry, God’s hand is still steady.
Sometimes, trust means walking blind while holding onto a voice you can’t see but still recognize.
That night, Ada decided to pray differently.
Not “God, fix it,” but “God, help me trust You while You’re fixing it.”
And slowly, peace began to replace her panic.
Weeks later, one “no” led her to an unexpected “yes”
a path she never planned, but one that felt like home.
Then she understood: God’s silence wasn’t abandonment; it was alignment.
So if you’re reading this and nothing makes sense right now, breathe.
You don’t need to have all the answers.
You just need to hold onto the One who does.
Faith isn’t always loud.
Sometimes, it’s just the quiet whisper that says,
“Lord, I don’t understand, but I still trust You.”
When seems to make sense but you still trust God
