Good ThingsSample
Let's be honest, unwrapping a Christmas gift can either be a hit or a miss, and many times, it depends on who it is from. You may open Grandma's gift reluctantly, afraid to find some new pair of socks, but if your best friend gives you a gift, you open it with excitement because you know that friend knows you well. The uncertainty of what the future holds is a major trigger for anxiety. You may be anxious about what the future will look like. You may have a fear that everything in your life won't unravel as greatly as you can imagine.
Be encouraged by God's promise: God knows the plans for you. It will not be a disappointment. This plan for you will be for your good. No one knows you better or loves you more than God does because God created you. As your life unfolds and unravels, you can walk with peace because your future is full of hope! As you read this Bible passage, take time to pray, "God, I will no longer fear. I trust that the plans you have for me."
What brings up feelings of uncertainty for you?
