Trusting God with the Future

Trusting God is one of the Bible’s primary themes. The words faith, believe, and trust are seen over and over. These are ways we receive from God, and they help us develop a solid relationship with God that is not shaken even during the most difficult circumstances. They eliminate worry, and that, of course, includes worry about the future. Trust allows us to enjoy the peace that passes understanding. As a matter of fact, trusting God is what allows us to enjoy life. Without it we find no rest for our souls.

We don’t even know for sure what will happen in the next five minutes, let alone a year or more from now. After entering into a relationship with God, we begin to learn that He wants us to trust Him and to lean and rely on Him for absolutely everything. This does not mean that we do nothing while God does everything for us, but it does mean that we trust Him more than we trust ourselves or anyone else. 

We have the privilege of trusting our Lord for protection, provision, strength, and wisdom—and certainly for the future. You can relax, because no matter what your future holds, God knows all about it, and He will go before you and plan your every step!
