Knowing the Truth about God will always be our Saving Grace

I wish I could fall back asleep.
All the worries of the week dancing in my head interrupting a good night’s sleep: Anxious about my mom’s health. Worried about getting done everything on my very full plate. Concerned for my friend’s family. Maybe you have similar struggles as you look at an unknown future.
Uncertainty can cause anxiety.
Most days, I can rise above these unknown circumstances. But today, I feel paralyzed by them.
How do we move forward when we don’t even know what lies ahead?
My mind needs the truth to speak louder than the uncertain noise. Here are 5 Truths I know about God in middle of the uncertainty.
I know God is in control even when life feels out of control.
I know God is good even when circumstances don’t seem good.
I know God has a plan even when I cannot see the plan.
I know God is working in the waiting even when my eyes cannot see any changes.
I know God is faithful to walk alongside me no matter how difficult my circumstances become.
In the Bible, there are some verses that start with the words, “we know/ I know”. I love God’s purposeful choice of words because sometimes we need a reminder of what “we know” to be true because hard circumstances will try to tell us the opposite.
Here are two of my favorite “we know” verses:
Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Knowing the truth about God will always be our saving grace.
As I cling to these powerful truths in the early hours of the morning, my heart feels lighter. A huge weight has been lifted, and I can see that God’s Got This!
I don’t have to know all the details; I just have to know the God who does!
If you are feeling worried about the future, I pray you will write out what you know to be true! I believe it will change your perspective.
Love, Jodi
