Do you ever get lost in the thought that you don’t know what’s coming tomorrow? The major weight of uncertainty. Maybe a major decision and you don’t want to make a step forward out of fear of the outcome? Not moving on a dream because you don’t know if it’s even achievable?
I can relate to that!
A common theme in my life has been my constant battle between doubt and faith. From the time I started college and trying to figure out how my tuition would be paid, to deciding on a degree program, to looking for good jobs, making the right friends, to just adulting responsibly and being a good Christlike person.
I know, it’s a lot right?
I’m sure you have your own list. Your own ideas and thoughts that you have been playing tug of war with.
Making these decisions on your own or even with family and friends, can be extremely difficult. Who know what the right decision is? Who knows how things will turn out. Is this the best decision or the worst mistake of your life? Who knows?
Well…HE knows…
Jeremiah 29:11 (one of my favorite scriptures) says this.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
One of my favorite scriptures and yet I still struggle. What moves me to keep going? The fact that he knows. Because sometimes, life is just beyond me. Because sometimes, I just can’t deal. So I rest in the fact that He knows. I need him to know. Simply because I don’t. That’s faith.
Accepting that I DON'T have it all figured out.
Hebrews 11:1 says
Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see.
You may not see it just yet. You may have roadblocks that you have encountered within this journey of life. You may need a lift in your faith. Well be encouraged. One more promise is
Romans 8:18
Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory he will reveal to us later.
Your journey will be great! Don’t give up!
