God doesn' t always explain the trials... but rest assured. He is neither surprised by them or caught off guard by them. Seeing these trials from far off, ask her if He had been speaking to her before hand.
I have had trials that seemed to never end, one right after another. But God is faithful to both prepare, and sustain His people. John10:1
Jesus speaking, Most assuredly I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the
door, but climbs up some other way is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the
door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice( the voice of the shepherd; and he calls his sheep by name and leads them out.And when he brings out his sheep , he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. Yet they will by no means follow a stranger,
A believer can take great comfort in this simple passage.
If you are his, then you hear his voice.
Not the voice of man or a human, but the voice of a father.
When a child is born they don't comprehend words of speech but they do understand the voice of the one that nurtures them. A baby knows it's mamas voice, It doesn't understand all the words but it know when I hear my mom, "Good things come, and then I make a mess in my pants and mama cleans me up" continues to happen as we grow older, We make a mess and God comes along and cleans us up.
Very simliar to hearing the inaudible voice of God, you know through the word of God, through the peace in your heart, that passes all understanding.
The Good Shepherd. Psalm 23
Most can resight it. Jesus mets are needs, He goes before the sheep,
John10:7 Jesus speaking
Most assuredly , I say to you I am the door of the sheep. All who ever came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear the,. I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that them may have it more abundantly.
11 I m the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and and know by My own. As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father, and I lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice, and there will be one flock and one shepherd.
The words of Jesus are a great comfort, that we his sheep will be all together in the end. Yet He Jesus had to suffer loss and death to accomplish this. Death no longer has a sting, with a life in Christ Jesus.
Psalm 139 God's Perfect Knowledge of Man( or woman) :wink:
O Lord, You have searched me and know me
You know my sitting down and my rising up
You understand my thoughts afar off
You comprehend my path and lying down
And you are acquianted with all my ways
For there is not a word on my tongue
But behold you, O Lord, You know it altogether
You have hedged me behind and before
and laid Your hand upon me
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me
It is high and I cannot attain it
Where can I go from Your Spirit?
or where can I flee from Your presence?
Ok GH

Should you care to do a word study,,, look up door in a strong's
It is interesting to know there is only one door to Noak's ark and the Tabernacle. both of which would fail to meet building codes today. But the One Door is significant.
