“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV)

Many of us are trying to find certainty in this world that feels so unstable. Questions can keep us up at night and cause continuous, low-grade anxiety.

When will the sickness end?
Will my family member stop running from God?
How will I know whether to take the job?

Too often, we go to others first — online “experts,” friends, mentors — instead of God. Scripture instructs us to seek wise counsel, yet it's also clear that the most “Wonderful Counselor” is God Himself (Isaiah 9:6, NIV).

Thanks be to God, He is ready and willing to speak to us when we come to Him. When we don’t, we miss out on a beautiful gift He offers each of us who calls Him Lord: the ability to hear His voice.

Seeking God for ourselves takes courage. It takes putting aside our desire for immediate answers and practicing patience. But when we do, we foster our ability to hear Him. And it’s always worth it.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)”

What anxious thoughts are robbing you of the experience of God’s peace? Think of what is making you anxious and decide right now to stop and pray, casting that anxiety to the Lord.

Give your worries over to Him today and allow his peace to guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

Turn to God and let Him help you gain the confidence of a toddler playing hide and seek.
