“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” — Isaiah 41:10, NIV
God does not want us to live in fear or be overcome with worry. In fact, we are told to be quite the opposite. God wants us to have strength and peace in the midst of our situation.
From concerns about money, relationships and health, these areas can bombard us. However, even when we do not have control in life, we know the One who does. We can trust Him with each new day.
God's plans for us are greater than we can imagine, or ever plan for ourselves. Psalm 33:11 says, “But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.” Although it is not as easy as it sounds, we do not have to be worried about the future because we know God is good and His plans are firm.
