Some weeks begin with confidence. Others begin with uncertainty, unanswered questions, or decisions that feel heavier than you'd like. When life feels unpredictable, it's natural to ask God for His blessing and guidance. But before we ask for God's favour, it's worth taking a moment to remember who He is and why we can trust Him, even when we don't understand what's happening.In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson reflects on why trusting God comes before asking for His favour. Drawing from Proverbs 3:5–6 and Psalm 84:11, he gently explores what it means to place your plans, hopes, and worries into God's hands at the beginning of a new week. Rather than promising easy answers, this episode offers quiet encouragement to keep trusting God's character, even when the road ahead isn't clear.
