When You Don’t Know the Way, But Still Move Forward
<p><em>“I don’t know how… but I believe it will work out.”</em></p><p>That’s faith. And sometimes, that’s all we have.</p><p>In today’s Nigeria, where uncertainty knocks on every door; job searches drag on, businesses struggle, naira dances up and down, and even food prices rise like prayers, it’s easy to feel lost. But here’s the truth: faith is not about having all the answers. It’s about moving, even when the road is foggy.</p><p>It’s that voice in your heart that says, “Keep going,” even when nothing around you makes sense.</p><p>Faith is not foolishness. It’s courage.</p><p>It’s what makes that mother sell groundnuts to send her child to school.</p><p>It’s what keeps a young graduate applying for jobs, despite 47 rejections.</p><p>It’s what makes you wake up each day and try again.</p><p>You may not know how it will happen. But if you let faith lead, life finds a way.</p><p>Sometimes, just believing is the breakthrough.</p><p>Let your faith be louder than your fear.</p><p><em>You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the next step.</em></p>
