Many of us have problems with the word "faith". We say as Christians that we have faith and we quote Hebrews 11:1 like no body's business. But when it comes down to it, it's the lack of faith that causes us to do what we do.

Worry | Fret | Freak Out | Discouragement | Hyperventilate

It also causes us to stress over the future. We have to keep in mind Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord."

We must realize that God has a plan for each of us. And just because we are doing one thing today does not mean will be doing that one thing for the rest of our life. God has a plan! And since "our thoughts are not his thoughts" (Isaiah 55:8) we can't comprehend what He has for us.

So why stress? Why get so worked up over what God has in control? We are a people that can't rest until our hand is on it. I know what I do when I get in charge - I mess things up. That's why I am glad that God is the one in charge and the one with the plan. My job and your job is to simply call upon the Lord and put our faith in that He knows what He is doing.

Simply put: Trust Him!

Prayer: "Lord, help us to trust you even if we can't see where and how you are going to work it all out."
