In our journey of faith, we often find ourselves worrying about the future. It’s easy to get caught up in what lies ahead and forget that God has a plan for our lives. When we take the time to truly trust in Him, we find peace in the uncertainty. The Bible teaches us that we do not have to navigate our worries alone. So, let's lean into God’s promises and remember that His plans for us are for good and not for harm. Together, we can remind each other to trust Him, knowing that He holds our future firmly in His hands.

It’s through prayer that we cultivate a sense of peace, knowing that someone much greater than our worries is listening and caring for us. So, let’s remember to pray, share our needs with God, and trust that He hears us.
