When God Doesn't Make Sense - Jon Soriano

Awaken Church // AUDIO

Show Notes

We say we trust God with our eternity, yet struggle to trust Him with our everyday lives. Whether it's our finances, our future, or our relationships, we often allow fear and uncertainty to take the place of faith. We believe God is powerful enough to move mountains, yet question whether He can move the mountains standing in front of us. The truth is, trusting God is easy when life is going according to plan, but real faith is revealed when things are outside our control. What if the very areas you're trying hardest to control are the areas God is asking you to surrender? In this message, we'll uncover what it truly means to trust God wholeheartedly, release control, and walk by faith even when we can't see the outcome.
