God isn’t telling you everything (yet)
Sometimes God doesn’t reveal everything because… 1. You’re not ready for it yet. 2. He’s preparing you for something bigger. 3. Even if He showed you, you might not believe it. 4. Trust grows in the unknown. 5. His plans for you are better than you can imagine. 🥥🫧🧋⛅️ Let go of control.
