God controls every moment of our lives. We worry unnecessarily about the future but we need to remember that the Lord is always with us and He guides our every step. Our God is Almighty He created this world with His word and He has formed us in His image.
Many times we do not understand what is happening in our lives but we need to remember that God sometimes takes us through times through which He wants to take us to a better place in the future.
In this present world we live through suffering but there is a hope in our life that we will enter the kingdom of God. Therefore, we will put away all worldly things and prepare ourselves internally to have the opportunity to live with Him as worthy children of God.
We should not worry too much about the temporary things of this world because God controls everything and whatever happens in our lives is for our good.
