Can I Trust Him With That?

There is a question that most of us have asked at some point, usually in the middle of a sleepless night or during a season of life that feels like it is unraveling. The question is simple but cuts to the core of our faith: Can I trust God with this?

Not with life in general. Not with the easy stuff. But with this specific thing, the one that keeps your mind racing, the one you have been gripping tightly because letting go feels more dangerous than holding on.

That question deserves an honest answer, and the answer begins with understanding what stability actually is.

We Have Stability Backwards

Most of us define a stable life the same way. There is enough money in the bank. Health is good. Relationships are solid. The future feels predictable. Comfort is the measuring stick, and when life delivers comfort, we call it stability.

But what if that definition is completely wrong?

What if the most stable place you could ever be in your life is not a place of comfort at all, but rather a place of complete trust in Jesus, even when everything around you feels uncertain? True stability is not the absence of storms. It is having a foundation that holds when the storms arrive, and storms will always arrive.
