What Are We Doing Here, God?

May 19, 2025

What are we doing here, God?
What is this season?
Why am I going through this?

These are just a few of the questions I’ve asked the Lord over the last three years. I’ve been a believer for over 20 years, and one thing I’ve learned for certain is this: we can always depend on the character of God.

If you find yourself in a season you didn’t bring on yourself, meaning it’s not the result of sin or a financial whirlwind you caused, then it’s probably a season of correction or perfection.

Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell broke it down so well. And when I heard his reel on Instagram, it hit me, this is what the Lord has been trying to tell me all along. He’s growing me and my wife in this season, and He is with us.

Sometimes, I pray and pray, and all I hear back is, “I am with you.”
And you know what? Eventually, you realize, that’s enough.

I’ve always been fascinated with God. The way He created everything, how the universe has been in perpetual motion since He spoke it into existence, it’s incredible. Everything in nature has a purpose. And when God said, “It is good,” in Genesis, it really was.

He is a good Shepherd, a good Leader, a good Father.
He will never leave us or forsake us. He is always praying for us, leading us, guiding us.

I know when this season is over and I look back, I’ll see so much more than I do now.
But even now, I can see that God is growing me in so many areas:
• Growing me in humility
• Growing me in patience
• Growing me to think deeper—strategically and conceptually
• Growing me to be more intentional with community
• Growing me to be more intentional with my wife
• Growing me in prayer
• Growing me in awareness and attentiveness

And I know there’s more.

I don’t usually use the term “legally blind” even though yes, that’s what the doctor said. And yes, it affects me every single day in ways most people don’t know. If you’ve followed my journey, you know I’ve written about it many times. But even in that, there’s a grace that God gives me I can’t explain.

My heart cries out: Lord, if You are in the valley, let me be here with You. And whenever You need me to go to the mountaintop to speak—I’ll go. I’ll do whatever You’ve told me to do. But then, let me come back here with You—where rest is, where peace is, where growth is.

So if you’re reading this and you’re in a storm, trust Him through it.
Endure.

There will be sleepless nights.
It will be frustrating.
It will bring tears.
But keep fighting.

Lean on Him more in these seasons.
Depend on Him more in these seasons.
