Trusting in God's Plan
God's plan for our lives is often revealed in the present moment rather than the long-term future. While we may desire a detailed plan for our entire lives, God usually only unveils the next step. This can be stressful and cause anxiety as we crave certainty. However, God calls us to trust Him, not a plan. Trusting in God, even when we don't know what lies ahead, is the key to finding joy.
