God’s plans extend beyond what we can imagine, realize, or hope for. In this sense, trying to understand God’s way in the world feels like a mystery, even an impossibility. Yet embracing God’s plans is what it means to have faith in God’s transformation of our world. We face an impossible task, made possible in Christ. Even when faithful actions seem senseless by the world’s standards, we are still called to put our trust in God.

Revelation 21:5 “And he who sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." Also, he said, ‘Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true.’” (NRSV)
