Tenth Sunday after Pentecost

What Makes Christians Different? Christians trust God to provide

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The hardest times to trust God are the times we need him most. It’s easier to trust God when your job is going great, your health is fine, your relationships are solid, and your family is good. It’s easier to trust God when the sun is shining. But what happens when life is suddenly overshadowed by dark days?

 

When tragedy strikes, we may wonder if God continues to care for us. At those times, Christians do not despair like those who have no hope. Instead, we focus on certain foundational facts. We are chosen and adopted as God’s dear children. God provides us with countless spiritual blessings and promises us an eternity of peace and joy. When we recognize these spiritual blessings, how can we not trust that God will give us everything we truly need at the right time? Christians trust God to provide.
