What Happens When You Don't Know What To Do Next? What Do You Do When Life Suddenly Changes?

What happens when the winds of life shift and causes unexpected change to take place in your life?   What happens when all of a sudden challenges come?   What happens when you lose someone you love?   What happens when no matter how hard you try, things don't work out the way you hoped or the way you planned?   What happens? 

 

Do you give up?   Do you quit?   Do you stop trusting?   Do you stop believing?   The only thing we can do "next" is to do what God has always wanted us to do.   He wants us to lean on Him and not our own understanding.   He wants us to trust Him, His purpose, and His plan.   He wants us to not be weary in well doing.   He wants us to cast the weight of our worry on Him.   

 

Life does happen and when it happens it is not always the way we want or expect it to but it is always the way that God knew it would happen.   Nothing is a surprise to God and that is why we must follow Him closely because He already knows the way we must go in order for us to make it to where He has designated for us to be.   

 

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

 

James 4:13-14

King James Version

Go to now, ye that say, today or tomorrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
