It Won’t Always Be Like This

Grief enters the room loudly, without an invitation, making its presence known. Then, just as suddenly as it arrives, it settles in, quiet but ever-present. It stirs thoughts, distorts truth, and isolates you, pulling you away from yourself, from others, and from God. In the silence, doubt creeps in, whispering lies that make you question the One who has never left you and never will.

But then, a moment, an encounter, a whisper, a reminder breaks through the fog. It might be a scripture, a song, a conversation, or even a still, small voice reminding you of what is true:

God is faithful. The righteous will never be forsaken.

Though it may not look like it now, and the weight of sorrow feels unbearable, I am learning to trust that the Lord will perfect what concerns me. What seems impossible in my eyes is possible with Him. He specializes in hard things. The worse, the better because He shows His strength in my weakness.

It won’t always be like this.

I was reminded, encouraged, and convinced that weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Doubt and fear will silence your faith and blur your vision to see God do the impossible. The narrative of my faith sets me free when I allow it to speak louder than my current circumstances.

I declare that I am no longer bound by fear or lies; God has set me free.

What He has done before, He can and will do again. My prayer is this:

“Lord, help me never to forget what You have done, so I can always remember what You can do! Great is Your faithfulness, even when mine falls short.”

If you find yourself in a season of doubt, grief, or uncertainty, know this: God is standing, waiting, arms open wide, ready to take the worst of you and turn it into the best. Trust Him. Lean into His faithfulness. Morning is coming.

Stay encouraged,

It won’t always be like this.
