And oftentimes, when God nudges us off the path of familiarity and calls us to follow Him to a place unknown, the disordered feelings (“wait, what? He couldn’t possibly be asking me to do this…to let go of this…to surrender this…this is so good!”) overpower our trust in our Father, who, in our heads, we know is a God of perfect order. But our hearts? They doubt. They question. They have side conversations with the devil. And well, that never ends well.
