What would it really look like to trust God — not just in theory, but in practice? To build our lives around a deep, settled confidence that God is at work… that even when things feel uncertain or painful, they are somehow being woven into something good? What if we could live with the assurance that, in
the end, "all shall be well" — even if it doesn't look that way right now?
Richard Rohr points out that in much of Western Christianity today, we don’t often live from that kind of trust. We talk about faith, but too often it doesn’t translate into a spirit of peace, joy, or freedom. And that, he
suggests, may be one reason why Christianity is losing its traction — not just in culture at large, but in people’s everyday lives.
