When Your Future May Seem Uncertain
By, Toni Smothers
Scripture Reading for the day: Matthew 6:31-33
Sometimes, when your future is feeling ambiguous and you are afraid because you don’t know what to do next, faith in God can waver. During those times, it’s easy to forget that God does understand how uncertain your life seems. But our Father God knows your needs at all times. It is during these stressful periods that you must cling to the truth in His Word. The bible tells us in Psalm 32:8, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.”
So stay in His Word. Direct your thoughts to hearing His voice through the verses you read. Satan would whisper lies to you so that your fear builds and consumes your thoughts. But there is peace and rest in God’s Word. Your direction can be found in the bible because He speaks to us when we earnestly seek out His wisdom and truth.
Scripture Quote: My son, eat honey, for it is good, and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste. Know that wisdom is such to your soul; if you find it, there will be a future, and your hope will not be cut off. Proverbs 24:13-14 (ESV)
Today’s meditation: God is always near.
