One Step Closer

Trusting God

""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. Then you will call on me, and I will listen to you."" ~Jeremiah 29:11,12

I think it is safe to say that everyone has done the trust fall with a few buddies before. It's kind of scary at first, but then you remember that your closest friend is behind you and will never let you hit the ground. But sometimes, even when it is your closest friend, you get a little worried and you're not sure that they will be there for you.
This is sometimes exactly what happens between us and God. We know that he cares about us because he's always been our friend, but this time things just seem a little out of hand and you start to wonder if you're going to make it through this one. It could be that your parents are fighting constantly. Maybe your best friend just discovered that they have cancer. Maybe you're being made fun of at school because you're a Christian...
Whatever your situation may be, I just want to let you know that God has it under control! He knew everything that would happen before your parents even gave you a name! And there's still not a day ahead that he has not seen, so don't worry! God has got you under his mighty wing. All you have to do is trust him. Simple as that!
You just have to let go of everything that you've been worrying about and give it all to God. Don't try to fight the battle by yourself because guess what! It's already won! It's okay if you're struggling, but really you don't have to because God has it all under control.

Challenge!!!
I don't really know if this is actually considered a challenge, but what I would love for you to do right now or whenever is the next chance you get, listen to Trust In You by Lauren Daigle. It is an amazing song and if you've already heard it, listen to it again! One, it's a great song and two, this time really just listen to the words. Let them soak in for a minute or two.

Also!:
If you've been praying for God to do something in your life for a long while and it still hasn't happened, don't worry! God will deliver what is best for you when the time is right! And notice I didn't say he will answer your prayer exactly the way you asked it, because most often, he doesn't. He does what is best for you, so don't get upset at God when things don't go your way. Just put your trust in him that he will lead you in the way he would want you to go.

When God pushes you to the edge of difficulty, TRUST HIM FULLY
Because one of two things will happen.
Either he will catch you when you fall
OR
He will teach you how to fly.
