Unshaken faith when God’s ways offend me [UNSHAKEN 25]

Have you ever placed your trust in God, hoping for a positive outcome, only to feel let down? In Matthew 11, John the Baptist’s story looked like it ended badly from a human perspective. Here was an individual whom Jesus considered to be the greatest among all men (Mat. 11:11) stuck in prison, hoping to be delivered, only to be beheaded instead. From the viewpoint of God, John's final outcome was intricately designed with divine purpose, his life was profoundly meaningful, and his calling was successfully carried out. We too can sometimes misunderstand God’s ways and methods, but they are always for our good and for His glory. If you feel disappointed, weary, or perplexed, today’s podcast will encourage you to trust God’s purposes even when His ways feel hurtful or confusing.
