When God says "no" or "not yet," it can be difficult to understand, often testing our faith and trust in His plan. This post explores how to respond when our prayers go unanswered, reminding us that suffering can be a part of our journey with Christ. Just as Jesus suffered, so may we, but it’s an opportunity to draw closer to Him. Trusting in God’s timing, even in seasons of waiting or hardship, refines our faith and allows His ultimate good for our lives to unfold.
