Faith & Tea with Serenity

trust is not a feeling -- it's a choice

Aireen

Let’s be real—trusting God is easy when life makes sense. But what about when things feel confusing, delayed, or just plain hard?

Have you ever wondered:
💭 “God, why is this taking so long?”
💭 “This doesn’t make sense—are You even listening?”
💭 “I thought I was following You, so why is my life not going the way I expected?”

Faith is not about understanding; it’s about trust. 

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking:
Why God’s plan sometimes doesn’t make sense at first
Romans 8:28—How God works ALL things for good
The story of Joseph—How betrayal and waiting led to his purpose
Three ways to trust God even when you don’t understand

If you’ve ever felt frustrated, confused, or even mad at God, this episode is for you! Let’s talk about how to trust Him even when things don’t go the way we expected.

💡 Key Takeaways:
God’s plan doesn’t always feel good, but it is always for our good. (Romans 8:28)
The process often looks different than the promise. (Joseph’s story, Genesis 37-50)
