Having a stable place in the middle of life's changes and knowing that God will take care of you are based on two clear principles: trusting the LORD and doing good to others. When we follow these two principles, we learn to depend on God in new ways that give us hope, joy, and rest.

Prayer

I put my life in Your hands because I love You, God. I give it to You as a living sacrifice, so that You will be honored and praised. As I do this, dear Father, I know that You are coming quickly to meet me with Your amazing grace and love. Numerous thanks! In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
