is it okay if I make an honest confession yeah please confession I love confession time we talked in the previous episode about betrayal and the last layer of betrayal we went through six layers of betrayal the last layer was how could God have seen this happening and he didn’t stop it and so some of the deepest betrayal I’ve ever felt is a misunderstanding of what God allows and so while I say my you know when I direct my trust toward God he provides a stability it has to be a faith in God that even when I see things
that don’t make sense or I don’t see what I think God should be doing I have to trust that God is trustworthy I have to trust that God is good even when I don’t understand what he allows sometimes and I wrote this question in my journal recently and I am profoundly challenged by it now every single day and it’s this how might my life look different if I really believed in the goodness of God therefore the trustworthiness of God and so I find that very fascinating and I think it directly links to the amount of
hope that we have have in our in our life in our relationships and just in our life in general and I think for me one of the outcomes of having trust that was broken in very significant human-to-human relationships is that I quietly started to quit on Hope yeah one of the things that I think is so fascinating Lisa about all of that is this passage of scripture in Luke chapter 24 especially as it relates to um like what happens when we feel like God is the one who has broken trust with us we God has L us down in this area and what I love about
the Bible is the Bible does not hide any of these emotions any of these realities in Luke 24 I think the people of Israel actually believe that they have been LED down by God they they’ve put all of their belief systems in the fact that Jesus was going to be the long-awaited promised Messiah who’s going to liberate and redeem them from the oppression of Rome this is what uh Luke 24 in verse 21 says it’s these two men they’re literally this kind of amazing they are in a state of confusion but they’re simultaneously walking with the Risen
