No Uncertainty

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

—Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT)

Dear LORD,

I come before You knowing I can put my trust in You—believing that there is no uncertainty within You—and that Your plans for me are for my good and extend through eternity, so that I have a hope.

Interwoven among all the things that have ever happened, the things that are happening now, and anything that will ever happen, is that marvelous plan for my individual life that was authored by You.

Limited by my humanness, I do not fully understand where I have been, where I am now, or where I am going.  I do not even fully know my own heart and I am uncertain of my own mind, at times.

 

But there is no uncertainty within You.  You know everything—past, present and future—and have designed a plan to bring me good and not disaster, to give me a future with You and with that, great hope, as I put my trust in You.

Thank You that I have no reason to fear anything that may have happened in the past, nor the things that are happening around me now, nor anything that may happen to me next—because the plan You have for me is a plan to use it all to greatly benefit me and not to cause me harm.

And though trouble may come to me—because I live in a fallen world full of evil—You will always be working in the midst of every circumstance I find myself in, to carry me through it in peace and bring good out of it for me.

I come before You knowing I can put my trust in You—believing that there is no uncertainty within You—that Your plans for me are for my good and extend through eternity, so that I have a hope.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
