RECOVER
Circle of Trust
There has been a lot of news lately around this coronavirus and I feel like the main thing people are feeling is fear around what will happen, uncertainty and now financial implications for the market. I experience fear like everyone else, but like many, I know deep down we have nothing to fear in the end, because God will take us when he wants to. We are not in control. I found a short scripture passage that speaks to this: Matthew 6:34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” My interpretation of what God is saying here is, don’t fear things you can’t control, worry about today, don’t fear tomorrow, live your life, and put your trust in God.
