We face a lot of uncertain things in this world...weather, health, wars, etc...These things are powerful issues that aren't really in our control. When we can't control things, they can seem scary, and we may begin to feel scared or anxious. It's easy for use to forget that God is actually in control, even when things seem out of control for us. God is present in all things...the big and the little. We can be certain of God's presence and power in all things.
Read Philippians 4:6-8.
