God is not the author of confusion, but of peace.

Are you confused? Is there something happening in your life right now you don’t understand? Or perhaps you’re baffled about the way things happened in your past.

Many people today suffer tremendously with confusion, but that was never God’s plan. He doesn’t cause your confusion—He wants to stop it.

He doesn’t want you to try to figure out everything that happens in your life. He knows what is going on and why, and He is in control.

That means you don’t have to worry and live in confusion. It almost sounds too easy, but you can have total freedom from the torment of confusion just by refusing the temptation to figure things out. So, trust God to take care of everything that concerns you and enjoy a peaceful, happy life.

Prayer of the Day: God, when I don’t understand what’s happening, I choose to trust You. Free me from confusion, quiet my mind, and help me rest in Your perfect control, amen.
