Stop Thinking, Start Trusting

"Stop thinking and start trusting." Proverbs 3:5

 So many people proclaim that they have a strong faith. They read their Bible, they go out and help their community, they pray, and they listen to God. But on the other hand, when something does not go like this person had planned, they tend to get worried and anxious about what will happen next and about what won't happen. So what are they doing wrong, they're faith seems perfect, so what are they forgetting? Well, they are missing a huge piece of this puzzle that we call faith. They are missing the piece of trust.
 If the description above matches up with where you are today, there are a few things that I want you to know. First of all, I want you to know that the plan that you are following in your life is not your own. You do not decide which way the path is going to turn or which direction you will take, God determines that, and when you try to figure all of that out on your own and try to map out your future, that could only result in stress, worry, and anxiety. So what do we need to do? How do we not get stressed out and worried? We need to trust. We need to trust in God that He has the path all laid out for us, and when you get stressed out and worried over your plans not working out, that is showing God that you don't have all of your trust in Him. I know that sometimes it can be difficult to trust in something where we don't know what is going to happen, but know this, that God has planned out every breath and every step that you will take, and He is going to make sure that you live an extraordinary life. All you have to do, is trust Him.
