Trust God Even When It Doesn’t Make Sense
Many people ask God to guarantee success before taking the step He’s asking them to take. But that’s not faith—that’s certainty seeking comfort.
Faith requires risk.
Proverbs 3:5 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.” That’s a hard truth, especially in leadership. Forgiveness doesn’t feel logical. Obedience doesn’t always look efficient. And stepping forward against overwhelming odds can feel foolish.
Gideon knew this firsthand. God asked him to face an army of 135,000 with just 300 people—and a strategy that made no sense. Torches. Jars. Trumpets. Yet Gideon obeyed, and God brought victory.
The lesson?
We’ll never see the whole picture—but God does.
In leadership, faith isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about taking the next right step, even when clarity comes later. When we obey, God works. When we trust, He leads.
Bottom line:
Faith means obeying God even when it doesn’t make sense, trusting that He sees what we cannot.
Call to Action:
