Trusting the Unknown

Scripture  

Hebrews 11:1–3 (NRSV)  

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for,  

the conviction of things not seen.  

Indeed, by faith our ancestors received approval.  

By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God,  

so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible.

Refrain  

Even when I cannot see, I trust You are leading me.

Poem  

Thomas Merton, from Thoughts in Solitude

“My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going.  

I do not see the road ahead of me.  

I cannot know for certain where it will end.  

Nor do I really know myself,  

and the fact that I think I am following your will  

does not mean that I am actually doing so.  

But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you.  

And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.”
