God is in control!
What’s going to happen-
– next year,
– next week,
– next hour from now?
Many people waste time-
– worrying about what might happen in the future.
The Bible gives us a wonderful promise:
God says:
“I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11).
Can we know the future?
No!
We can’t!!
But we can face the future with confidence-
– when we know that God is in control!
– and He is working for our good (Romans 8:28).
No matter what circumstances come our way-
– we know He’s there for us.
When I read the newspapers or see the evening news-
– I don’t always feel optimistic about the future.
– and pessimistic about the days to come,
– but realistic about my earthly and eternal life.
When I put my trust in God-
I know that He is in complete control;
I have hope for tomorrow and
– strength for living each and every day.
