Many are talking about a coming financial crisis. What is true, what is false, and what is exaggerated isn’t always easy to discern. The media stokes fear. The unbeliever frets.

What’s coming? I don’t know. All I know is this:

I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. (Psalm 37:25, KJV)

Whether the sky is truly falling or not (Personally, I’m always hopeful), we believers don’t worry as the world worries. We have the guarantee of God’s provision and protection.

31 “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ 32 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. (Matthew 6:31-32, NLT)

If you’re allowing fear to infect your heart, if you’re allowing the talk of doom and gloom to rob you of peace, it’s time to remember Who we serve. Sure, be a good steward and prepare for challenges. But never be consumed by fear.

No matter what happens around you, you can have peace within. God is in control, and He has never failed. For the believer, the future is always bright.
