If there is any constant in life, someone said, it'll be changes. The person who said that isn't wrong, but for us Christians we have one other constant far more powerful than changes in life: we have Christ. God's words never return to Him void. He is the same today, yesterday, and tomorrow. He who is, was, and is to come will never change.
Often times, we get scared out of mind when things go drastically out of our control. Five-year plan goes awry, job security becomes threatened, decisions has to be made, closed one in need of help.... and the list goes on. Its understandable that we tend to panic when we perceive ourself as losing control because not knowing the future brings us unwanted anxiety which sends our thoughts (not necessarily good ones) racing.
If thats you, I come bearing good news! God numbers even the very hairs of your head (Matthew 10:30) and has charged you with not a spirit of fear, but of power, of love, and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). He assures you that you do not need to worry (Matthew 6: 25-37) because He knows of the plans He has for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11).
Relinquish your need for control over to Him, for He knows all things.
Jeremiah 29:11(NIV)
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
