Surrender the Future

In you, Lord my God, I put my trust. Psalms 25:1 NIV

My friend, you can trust God.

You can trust His love for you.

You can trust His purposes for your life.

He loves you relentlessly and is setting up the long-term victory for you, not just the short-term solution you are looking for.

Psalms 25:1-3, “In you, Lord my God, I put my trust. I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me. No one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause.” (NIV)

Life isn’t fair.

People do bad things and get away with it.

When those things cost you, discouragement is a palatable thing.

Trust God through it anyway.

Process your emotions and abandon the outcome to God.

Do good.

Be proactive.

Be creative.

Pursue God’s ways and get your eyes off what others choose to do.

Psalms 25:4-5, “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.” (NIV)

Put your hope in God and learn to walk the walk of faith which you don’t know what will happen but you are believing that God will not leave you helpless in it.

Don’t be so focused on what you can’t see about the future that you miss what God is doing right now.

Surrender the future to God and walk with Him in the present one day at a time.
