Wait...God is hiding? Yes, Scripture and our experiences both testify that He is often concealed. But perhaps He’s hiding not to confuse but redirect -- away from speculation, pride, and misplaced seeking -- and inviting you to find Him in the last place you’d expect: humility, suffering, and the ordinary. Finding God isn’t about striving or guessing but trusting when He says, “Here I am, for you.”

More importantly, how can we learn to value what truly matters?
