Learn to trust it's worth it

Yesterday I was really touched by a song at church. 'I'm in his hands', it was called. The song took me by such surprise, because it told me something I hadn't fully realized before.

That my future is in good hands.

Now I have known that for years, but I'm not sure I fully trusted it - till yesterday when I sang "the days I cannot see have all been planned for me".

And already from the next line I was tearing up.

Realizing that no matter how much I worry and how weak I sometimes feel in pursuing it, my future is in good hands. And not just safe, but in good hands. - Meaning there are happy, important and big things ahead of me.

I’m in His hands, I’m in His hands

Whatever the future holds, I’m in His hands

The days I cannot see have all been planned for me.

His way is best, you see;

I’m in His hands.

And learning to trust this is such a relief, because suddenly the worries of today don't seem so big anymore. And that is the biggest gift I have been given in a really long time.

The moment you realize that you will not fail, you're journey won't end - you have so far to go so much more to grow. So much wiser to get, so much more time to learn to trust this.

Are we not lucky we get second chances in life? That no matter how weak we feel, we never stop growing - we never stop seeing new days. Every new day is a new chance.

Someone who loves us more than we understand has everything planned. And that plan is planned out

perfectly. No details are forgotten, is it not amazing?

Grasp it, and trust that we're in good hands.

I really don't care if the ones of you who read this believe that God alone is the conductor of our lives. I know what's important for me. But I care if you think that our life has no meaning, and that there is no plan - no light at the end of the tunnel - for you.

For crying out loud! Trust it.

But to walk around on the street permanently feeling that there was no reason for you to get up, hating your job and your daily chores, holding on to that saying that's to popular among young people at the moment, "f*** my life". What is that supposed to mean? I hate when people say it. I really hate it!

- How about 'love' your life instead. Because it's your life, and you should be proud of it. All the things you can do.. !

But people still say "f*** my life" ?

I hear people saying it, when something bad happens to them, when it's raining or when they're just tired.

Like a 'curse that this and this had to happen to me', like a 'someone must really hate me because this happened to me' and a 'there is no meaning'.

I'm not saying you should love every single thing that happens in your life, because life is full of ups and downs. But how about you embrace your life instead of hating it when the bad things happen? And maybe seeing them as happening for a purpose. A purpose that either makes you stronger, wiser, or leads to something even better?

Be good to yourself and the life you live.

Learn to trust it's worth it.
