Hello everyone! Here's your question of the week: Why do some people find it so hard to trust God’s plan with their lives? I'll be entirely honest and say that I am one of those who find it difficult to trust God in spite of all of my blessings. I spent my "pre-Christian" years working hard for everything that I achieved (not knowing that He was the one blessing me the entire time), and I was accustomed to taking care of everything (my work, my family, my siblings, my grades, my future prospects coming from a poor household... all of it). So when I was told that I could let things go because He was going to take care of all that I hold dear, I was confused and unsure. What if He doesn't really care? What if He doesn't do a better job than I could? (insert everyone's snickers here) All hilarity aside, I really believed that. And I still struggle with relinquishing control to Him. It's a constant and daily battle for me, but I'm hopeful that I'll get there one day soon!
