Trust in the Lord with all your heart...

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight” Proverbs 3:5-6
How comfortable are you with uncertainty? Most of us agonize over decisions because we are afraid of making a mistake, but God doesn't promise to give us absolute certainty. He invites us to know and trust Him in the midst of uncertainty. 
That's what faith is all about! 
If you constantly worry about people, places, and things, surrender your fears to God. Instead of being determined to figure out what God wants you to do, focus instead on who He is.
As human beings we have finite minds and we do not always understand the eternal purposes behind events. Faith is trusting that our story will fit perfectly into His story.
Trust God's character in the midst of uncertainty and embrace the wisdom and goodness of God.
“Faith without works is dead.” Big Book pg 88 
 “…let me see your faith without your works, and I will make my faith clear to you by my works.” James 2:18 Have a blessed day y’all!
