You don’t need to see the route when you trust the Driver. God isn’t lost; He’s leading you exactly where you’re meant to go. Rest in Him.
You’ve done this before…
You get on a bus, find a seat, and maybe put your headphones in. You’re not watching the road, you’re not checking the map, and you’re not worrying about every turn. You just… relax.
You do the same thing when you board a plane. You buckle your seatbelt, scroll through your phone, maybe close your eyes for a few minutes…even though you’ve never met the pilot.
And when you step onto a ship, you don’t demand to see the captain’s credentials before you set sail. You simply trust that someone up front knows where they’re going.
Then, why is it so much harder to relax when God is the one steering your life?
We say we trust God, but then we worry about how things will work out.
We say He’s in control, but we keep trying to grab the wheel.
It’s like sitting on a bus and constantly shouting directions to the driver.
“Turn left here!”
“Are you sure that’s the right road?”
“Wait, what if this route doesn’t work?”
Sound familiar?
We crave control because uncertainty makes us uncomfortable.
But faith isn’t the absence of uncertainty; it’s peace in the middle of it.
Isaiah 26:3 says, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You.”
Notice that peace comes from trust.
Not from knowing the route.
Not from seeing the destination.
But from knowing who’s driving.
Think back to a time when life didn’t make sense. Maybe at the time, it felt like God had taken a wrong turn.
But looking back now, can you see how He was rerouting you to something better?
Sometimes what feels like a detour is just divine redirection.
God never promised to give you the whole map. He just promised to be your Guide.
Psalm 37:5 reminds us, “Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act.”
That’s the kind of faith that changes everything.
So today, take a deep breath.
You don’t need to figure everything out.
You don’t need to see every step ahead.
You don’t need to panic every time life takes a turn you didn’t expect.
If you can relax on a bus, a plane, or a ship with a stranger in charge…
You can relax in life knowing your Heavenly Father is at the wheel.
He’s not lost.
He’s not late.
He’s leading you exactly where you need to go.
So sit back.
Trust the Driver.
And enjoy the ride.
