Trust God’s Plan for Your Future
Adapted from Wake Up to the Word
For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.
We would all like to know what the future holds for us. God does have a good plan for each of us, but we have to be willing to follow His plan rather than going our own way in order to experience it.
God wants us to live the good life that He has prearranged and made ready for us to live. In order to press on, we must forget what lies behind us. Your future has no room in it for bad feelings from your past. Take the good things from the past and the lessons you’ve learned along with you but let go of anything that’s holding you back or keeping you stuck in fear or insecurity of any kind.
You can have hope instead of hopelessness. Start believing today that your future is filled with good things and refuse to settle for less than God’s best for you.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, I trust Your plan for my life. Help me release the past, overcome fear and insecurity, and look forward with faith, knowing my future is filled with hope, amen.
