Stop trying to figure it out

STop figure out

Jesus answered and said to him: “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know after this”.  John 13:7 NKJV

Life happens.

It is almost like being on this lifelong roller coaster journey, with all it’s ups and downs, trying to figure out what is going on and where am I actually going.

The thing with life is that we do not have control.  We think we do, but we don’t.

The root of the desire to have control, is fear.  Fear of the unknown, fear of not being in control.

We only have control over the way we handle what comes our way.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths”.  Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Jer29:11 NKJV

What a privilege to surrender my unknown future in the hands of the God who is actually in control and has my best interest at heart.

1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he [b]meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the [c]rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalm 1 - NKJV
