When you are in God's plan, the ground has an illusion of being shaky but is perfectly steady
I had a revelation recently.
In previous posts, I did not understand how people like Jesus's mother Mary and other people in the Bible had so much faith.
When they were told there was a plan from God, OK, then it seems straightforward to have faith, but when things go wrong - like when there was no room at the inn for Mary - it's easy to have doubts. Yet Mary didn't doubt, she still had faith in God's plan. To me, that was (and still is) absolutely amazing. I'm certain I would have had a lot of doubts in her place.
Yet recently, it was revealed to me that the ground is in fact rock-solid-steady during those times. It's that it only seems less steady when something unexpected-to-us happens, like when there was no room at the inn for Mary. Still, God had made provision for her. None of this was unexpected to Him.
If you know for sure you are doing something according to God's plan, then Satan will make the ground appear shaky. But actually, the ground is steady because God's plan cannot be disrupted, even by Satan. Satan will have a go at up-ending things in the hope that you will give up on your role in God's plan. Yet, the ground is in fact perfectly steady because God's plan will prevail. So you can rest assured that the ground is steady at these times, no matter how much it might appear to be otherwise.
