Another Of My: My Sunset Testimonies.

“Why I Still Trust God with My Family”

By Pastor Terry Bailey

Trust Tested in the Trenches

There’s not a family on earth that hasn’t faced storms. Mine is no exception. I’ve seen heartaches, misunderstandings, strained seasons, and hard conversations. I’ve prayed prayers that haven’t been answered—yet. But I’ve never stopped trusting God with every one of them.

Psalm 37:5 – 'Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.'

I Can’t Carry What Only God Can

There was a time I tried to fix it all—to be the peacemaker, the provider, the strong one. But the Lord showed me that I was trying to carry what only He can.

1 Peter 5:7 – 'Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.'

I Plant Seeds — God Grows the Garden

All those years of praying, teaching, and sometimes just listening — they weren’t wasted. Seeds were planted. Some took root early, others are just now sprouting. But God never stopped working underground.

Isaiah 55:11 – 'So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void... it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.'

I Trust Even When I Can’t See

There are moments when I have no proof that a breakthrough is coming. But that’s where faith lives — in the gap between the promise and the fulfillment.

Hebrews 11:1 – 'Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.'

My Legacy Is Not in My Control

My role isn’t to guarantee the outcome—it’s to walk faithfully and love deeply. God is the author of their stories. I just pray to be a godly chapter in each one.

Proverbs 20:7 – 'The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him.'

Sunset Summary

I still trust God with my family—not because everything is perfect, but because He is. He loves them more than I do, and He’s still writing their story.

'As long as I breathe, I’ll trust. As long as I pray, I’ll believe. As long as He reigns, I’ll rest.'
