Radical trust.
The only way to make impact in life is through a trust in God that is unwavering, unshaken, unmovable, unhinged and unparalleled.
You may ask, "why waiting on God can get so trying and most times painful." Well, it is simple- God is not a man and His ways are not our ways.

Over the years, I have been in situations that leaves the question, "has God forsaken me?"
Life being a journey is not mapped out in some book that you can refer to for directions. You make your journey and follow through with the paths you are on until you reach your destination.
The Word of God is ever sure and no matter how the paths winds or bumps, the destination is never changed.

The battle takes a different turn because like the human mind, it calculates it's moves and know just where and how to attack you.
Man has known nothing but struggle and because that is what platform he is raised up on, he tends to forget that, there is what is called "Trust in God" and that it should be radically followed through.

Yes God answers prayers and He is not afraid of your challenges.
Recall in the book of Daniel chapter 10, when it seems as though Daniel's prayers were being ignored by God despite his steadfastness and trust in God.
Dan 10:12-13.
Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
...???
Like Daniel, many of us have been faced with unanswered prayers and we then resort to wallowing in complaints, regrets and distrust in the promises of God.
Like a soldier on the battle field, be aware that you can always count on your cavalry to come get you when you light your flare.
Be not unsure, there is an answer already before you asked and you just need to be more trusting and never give up on God.
Radically hold on to your Trust in God and embark on the journey not shaken or stired.
It may not be that easy, but there will be some ease knowing you can always trust in God to make the journey worth taking.
Blessed @ejamai!, yes, we can live in peace and love if we trust God Almighty the creator of all things. Thanks for being here.
