Trust in HimSample

Keeping Your Trust in God
People seek security from all sorts of things—money, possessions, houses, and more—and yet we live in a society that is completely in the grip of worry. People worry constantly about a future they cannot control. Christians are not meant to live that way. In his book, Your Finances in Changing Times, Larry Burkett wrote, “We tend to look at the future with anxiety and worry. God says that worry is a sin. What is worry? It is taking on a responsibility that belongs to someone else.”
If we believe God is in control, and He is, then we have no need to worry. The problem most Christians have is not a lack of faith that God can protect and provide but rather a lack of faith that God will do so in a way that we think is best. This is foolish presumption, because our understanding is so limited, and God knows exactly what is best for us and for His kingdom.
God made His wisdom and knowledge clear to the prophet Isaiah:“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” (Isaiah 46:9–10). When we cannot clearly see the way, we can still trust His goodness and not fear the future.
Growth Principle:
Since God’s plans are always better than our own, we can trust Him to do what is best for us.
