Lately I have been worrying alot about my future. At this point in my life when I am in uni, I start thinking about what I should major in, what type of job should I get, what I should do with my life. Many times, I find myself coming full circle. I find that I am unable to come to a decision if I did not seek God in my life.
Looking back now, I think about the many times when I have worried about my grades, about school, about how things will turn out in general. In retrospect, I have seen that God has always been there to pull me through, to help me out. He has always shown me the greater plan that He has for me, be it during O levels or A levels, or even now in uni.
I know that many times, it is difficult not to worry about what will happen the next day or next week or next month or even next year. What I have learned over the past few years is that worrying gets us nowhere. On top of that, worrying pulls us further away from God. The time that we spent worrying about our life, our future, could have been spent praising God and thanking God for all the little things that He has done in our lives! Worrying distracts us from the wonderful things (though it may be small) that God has done for us, or has provided us with.
I pray especially now, brothers and sisters, that school has started and the stress is starting to take it's toll on you, that you will give your worries up to the Lord. Let Him take control of your life and know that regardless what your situation may be now, know that God is in control and that you can trust Him. Just like Sunday's devotion, let JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL of our lives!
