Sunday Prayer: When I Don't Understand

Father, I don't understand what you're doing in my life right now. I don't understand why you allowed this pain, what purpose this suffering serves, how this fits into any good plan. I want explanations, need clarity, crave understanding before I'll trust. But you're asking me to trust without understanding.

This is hard for me. I want to lean on my own understanding, figure it out, make sense of it all. But your ways are higher than mine, your thoughts beyond my comprehension. If I could fully understand you, you wouldn't be worth worshipping. Help me trust what I can't understand, believe you're good when I can't see how, hope in your purposes when I can't comprehend them.

I don't need to understand everything; I just need to trust you with everything. You see what I can't, know what I don't, and are working purposes beyond my comprehension. That's enough. Your character is enough. Your faithfulness is enough. Help me trust beyond my understanding.
