How to Trust God (Especially When It's Hard)

Trusting God is easy when life is good and hard when it isn't. Here's how to keep trusting Him when you can't see the way.

Trust is not the absence of questions or fear; it's choosing to lean on God in the middle of them. It grows the way any relationship does, over time, through experience, as you find Him faithful again and again.

Remember who He is

Trust rests on God's character, good, faithful, and near. Remind yourself of that when feelings say otherwise.

Read His promises

Fill your mind with what God has actually said. Faith comes by hearing His Word.

Pray honestly

Tell God your doubts and fears. Honest prayer is not a lack of trust; it's an act of it.

Take one small step

Trust is a muscle. Obey in one small thing today, and watch Him meet you.

Look back

Recall the times God came through before. His past faithfulness is fuel for present trust.
