We Cannot Manipulate the Future

Faith makes us stronger

We live so anxious and worried about the future that we even want to control everything and everyone. Anxiety takes hold of us, because things have to go exactly as our minds imagine, but we forget that God is the Lord of time. It is He who knows the future, and we can trust.

 
Who can predict something in life? No one! What can you predict about the lives of others. Only God knows, for He rules and controls all things. Thank God, only He knows.
 
We must live our lives by entrusting our day to God and knowing that, “All things work together for good to them that love God” (Rom 8:28). All situations in our lives are controlled by the Lord, so let go of those concerns that cannot be resolved.
 
Worry about things that depend on you. For example: the activities of your work; your child you need to educate; The husband you need to take care of. These are the things that should concern you, but the future belongs to God, and, as the passage in Ecclesiastes says, “Whatever must happen will happen under God’s care.”
 
I hope this message brings you some peace .

The Lord bless you!
Your brother,
