Life Be Lifing, But God Be Godding

Real People Real Talk

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by life's challenges, wondering where God is in the midst of your struggles? "Life be lifing, but God be Godding" isn't just a catchy phrase—it's a powerful truth that can transform how we navigate difficult seasons.
This heartfelt exploration unpacks what it means to acknowledge life's hardships while maintaining unwavering faith in God's unchanging character. Discover how the vicissitudes of life—from minor annoyances to major crises—can coexist with the steadfast knowledge that God remains sovereign, faithful, loving, and good through it all.
Drawing from compelling biblical examples like Daniel in the lion's den, the Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace, and Peter walking on water, we see how God shows up in seemingly impossible situations. When life appears uncertain, we can trust that God is masterfully orchestrating something beautiful, even when we can't see or feel it yet.
The message offers three practical approaches when life starts "lifing'": keep trusting God without trying to figure everything out yourself, keep seeking Him through prayer and Scripture even in tough seasons, and keep watching expectantly for His deliverance. As Romans 8:28 reminds us, all things work together for good for those who love God.
Don't get consumed with the what, how, or when—keep your focus on WHO holds your future. Take one step of faith at a time, knowing God is faithful. His Word will have the final say in your circumstances, and through Christ, the victory is already yours. Ready to experience the peace that comes from knowing that while life be lifing, God still be Godding? Listen now and be encouraged.
