Dear God, I’m Scared But I Will Choose To Trust In You

I’ve been going through a lot of fearful experiences these days, Lord. I don’t know what will happen next. It feels like any moment from now, everything will change in an instant, and the worst case is I might end up losing myself. I’ve recently experienced a lot of unexpected events in my life that really challenged my faith in you. I am so devastated and broken inside.

I am scared, Lord. Things slowly became unfamiliar, and the vision of my future seems so blur. I can’t figure out what I need to do next, but I know you are there, guiding me deep inside. I may have fears, but I will choose to trust in you, Lord. I can’t think of any other ways. You are my only hope. So whatever it is that you wanted me to learn and experience. Please give me the heart that’s willing to stay and endure.

Trusting in you in this kind of season in my life is not easy. Sometimes I am tempted to listen to the negative voices inside me, but your grace is always enough Lord. You sustain me all this time, and you continue to bless me with the things that I need. I may be fighting a battle right now, but I know that you already hold the victory.

I have so many “what if’s” and so many questions in my mind. I’m scared to feel the pain again and again. But despite what I feel inside, I still believe that you will heal me one day. I know that this will not last. You will perform miracles in my life Lord, and you will continue to bless me with your love.

I will choose to believe in your promises. I’ll be waiting for that day when everything will be okay. I do trust in your goodness Father God. You are always enough. This life may not be perfect, but I will try my best to treasure it. I pray for your love Lord. Please teach me how to open my heart so that you can live within. Your love alone can take away all my fears.

Encounter me with your love, every day Lord. Remind me over and over again that you will never leave me. Give me the courage Father to take the next step. Have your way in my life Lord. I surrender to you all my worries and cares. I do believe that you will perform miracles in my life.

    I really needed to hear this today, and I have shared since there are so many others who are dealing with the same pain, uncertainty, and loss. Wondering when life will return to something close to normal. I know at times it is difficult to place all trust in Him, but it is something we, as Christians, must do in order to receive all the love and grace He has to give. So, thank you, to whoever penned these words. I needed this today.

      A very encouraging message of positivity to make a reflection of what’s happening in your life. When you received the connection with God in the past and passed through your sufferings and another trials come into your life, this message keeps reminding us not to be discouraged but to hold on to that feelings of connection to keep you faith intact with the holy spirit. It is very true that there are two voices whispering in our mind, the voices of defeat (negative) and the voices of victory (positive). The voice of victory is coming from God grace in order for us to get our connection with him stronger than ever. AmenπŸ™

    This is how I feel. I just returned to work after a 3 month furlough. It terrifies me knowing that I could be so close to someone who might be sick. I hold onto hope that God is always watching over me and my family and protecting us from harm.

      Im losing it, my faith is drifting away. This is me right now but the sadness is overpowering my faith. Frustrated, devastated and depressed. Husband have no work and a drug user, he take them so he can do his daily tasks, so part of our money goes to his trash, have kids that no one can look after with but my husband, and me working 10 hrs a day. Money not enough for our expenses… Past due rents, loans and other bills. I am so frustrated that i really dont believe anymore that this is my destiny, that i should’ve chosen a good husband, i regret the day i choose to be with him, i have a lot of hatreds towards my husband and he’s not gonna let go of me and simply i have nowhere to go. Please God, let me know what to do… I’ve been praying but cant figure out whats your answer.

    I praise God for using you and this article as a reminder for me and everyone that He loved us, is loving us, and will forever love us. No matter the circumstances are, one truth will remain; that God’s always with us. He will never leave us.
