Into the UnknownSample

Written by MaKayla, age 15 from Carrollton, Georgia, USA

It’s hard to go through change. When we get so used to how things are and then things change, we can struggle with the uncertainty and unknown about how things will be in the future.

Going from elementary school to middle school was really hard for me! I had been in the same routine for five years, and the change really shook me up. I had a new school, new teachers, a new schedule, and had to make new friends. I didn’t know what to do in the middle of all those changes!

But it’s in the middle of changes and unknowns that we can rely on God. God is who we can trust when everything around us is shaken up. God is constant when everything in the world changes. In the midst of a lot of changes, God will never change.

God promises to never leave us, to comfort us, and to walk with us. We were never meant to go through this life alone. When our normal is shaken up, God will walk alongside us, comfort us, and guide us every step of the way.

What’s one change happening in your life right now? Today, thank God for never changing as you go through that change in your life.
