Earlier this year, a plane from Thailand was headed to London’s Heathrow, but a fire shut down the airport. London’s Gatwick airport was full. The pilot told the passengers honestly, “We don’t know where we’re going to go yet.” The aircraft finally landed in Brussels.¹

Sometimes we feel the Lord telling us, “Fasten your seat belts. I’m in control even though you don’t know where you’re going.” That happened to Abraham. God called him, not telling him where he was going, and Abraham obeyed.

We walk by faith, and the best advice for finding God’s will is still found in this simple formula: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Ask the Lord for strength to trust and courage to obey. He’s a true and faithful Pilot.

God in His love always wills what is best for us. In His wisdom He always knows what is best, and in His sovereignty He has the power to bring it about.
