Are you constantly reliving the painful experiences in your past, trying to understand why those things happened to you? The truth you seek won’t be found in the past. Knowing “how” or “what” or “why” won’t change anything. There’s only one thing that will heal your troubled heart – not answers or even understanding, but only unconditional trust in the wisdom and sovereignty of God.

“Though he slay me, yet will I hope in him…
Indeed, this will turn out for my deliverance.”

— Job 13:15-16 (NIV)

Lord Jesus, help us to stop fixating on the past, to stop trying to figure it out. Even if we could, it wouldn’t change a thing. Instead give us the grace to trust You with both our past and our future. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
