Satan's plot is to convince us that we can't see or hear what God is doing, but the Lord has a plan for redemption, and we can walk with and have a relationship with Him. There is a plan for each difficult place or season, and we can walk through it with our Father. He will cover our weaknesses and be with us every step of the way.
