We are not asked to SEE, said Amy. Why need we when we KNOW? We know--not the answer to the inevitable Why, but the incontestable fact that it is for the best. It is an irreparable loss, but is it faith at all if it is 'hard to trust' when things are entirely bewildering?
Amy suggests that instead of focusing on understanding or seeing the reasons behind our experiences, we should trust our inherent knowledge that things happen for a reason. Even when faced with loss or confusion, it is important to recognize that the outcomes are ultimately for our good, even if we cannot comprehend the reasons. This perspective invites a form of faith that persists despite hardship and uncertainty.
The challenge of maintaining faith in bewildering circumstances is highlighted in the quote. It raises the question of whether true faith can exist when it is difficult to trust. Rather than seeking clarity in every struggle, Amy encourages embracing a deeper understanding that prioritizes belief in a greater purpose behind life's complexities. This approach emphasizes resilience and trust in divine wisdom.
