There are moments in the faith journey that few people talk about—moments when you still believe God is real, powerful, and faithful, yet you don’t trust what He’s doing in your life right now.

In this deeply honest solo episode of Words of Encouragement, Frankie Lubin opens up about the tension between belief and trust. Belief is intellectual—you know God exists. Trust is relational—you feel safe in His hands. And when life brings financial pressure, family challenges, unanswered prayers, and long waiting seasons, trust can feel shaken even when faith remains intact.

This episode gives language to what many believers feel but hesitate to admit: disappointment with God does not mean you’ve lost your faith. Through personal testimony and biblical reflection, Frankie explores why trust often breaks when prayers go unanswered, obedience doesn’t seem to produce results, or God feels silent in moments when clarity is needed most.

Referencing Jesus in the Garden, Job’s suffering, David’s refining seasons, and Solomon’s rise and fall, this conversation reveals a powerful truth—staying with God while you’re hurting is still an act of faith. Trust isn’t rebuilt by pretending nothing hurts; it’s rebuilt by remaining present with God in the middle of the pain.

This is not surface-level encouragement or motivational noise. It’s an honest conversation about unedited prayers, real emotions, and choosing relationship over retreat when faith feels tested.

If you’re in a season where you believe God but struggle to trust Him, you don’t have to carry that alone.
