Object Permanence

Season 1 Episode 25

I'm back after two months cuddling my newborn and (still) adjusting as a family of six. Thank you for your patience!

Object permanence is the ability for the human brain to know that something is still there even though it's hidden. This concept has been on my mind with my newborn baby. When I set him down and leave the room, he knows himself to be completely abandoned. He physically cannot comprehend that when he doesn't feel me, I'm still there. 

When we go through trials and difficult seasons, how many times have we accused God of abandoning us? Sometimes it’s easy to feel like He doesn't care or He doesn't hear us. How can we spiritually arrive at a place of object permanence and trust Him when it's the hardest?
