We have had three hours of prayer each night for three days for our Easter service at Agape Family Fellowship, the church that I am pastoring. We hand-addressed 2,500 envelopes to the residents within a three-mile radius of Agape with an invitation to our Easter service. We have been encouraging all regular attendees to invite, Invite, invite.

So the question that was asked tonight at prayer was, “How many people are going to come on Easter?” the answer, “no clue!”

How long am I going to live? No clue.

Am I going to get cancer? No clue.

There are literally hundreds of questions about the details of my life that I have no answer for, I simply have no way of knowing what the answer is without being able to prophesy the future. I can guess but they are not intelligent guesses, just guesses.

The unknown causes a lot of people to worry and fret resulting in all kinds of negative consequences in their life, relationships, and health, both mental and physical.

The Bible is full of admonitions and promises in regard to our unknown future, and all of them can be summed up and stated in two words, “trust God.”

The promise of trusting God is peace, security, and joy. That sounds good to me, I think I will do that. I will occasionally start to fret and then I simply say out loud, “I trust You, Lord.” It works well for me, give it a try, unless you enjoy worrying.
