You Just Don't Know



…for you do not know what a day may bring. Proverbs 27:1

Today I spoke to many different caregivers after sharing at an event.  The underlying connection between us all was that none of us expected nor really desired to become a caregiver.  Not one person laid awake at night dreaming of the day he/she would be able to dedicate their entire being to meeting the needs of another person.  Each new face I met shared how they never saw their situation coming and how unexpected it all was. 

Proverbs tells us all that we don't know the challenges the next day will hold but that we are not to focus on that for the Lord has all control.  No matter what may come or happen to us or the ones we love, God is still on the throne and Jesus is still the Savior of the world.  That never changes.  

When we literally place our trust in the Lord we no longer live in fear of tomorrow or what our future will look like.  We have a hope that may not make sense to the world around us, but is real just the same.  Like the old hymn says, "I know who holds tomorrow." and as believers we do!

Don't allow the enemy to use the uncertainty of tomorrow in order to paralyze you and steal your joy.  Take His hand and move forward knowing He already knows the future.
