✝️ QUESTION OF THE WEEK
From Alyssa, 19 — Tampa, Florida
ㅤ
“Hi Pastor James. I’ve been wanting to ask this for a while, but I didn’t know how…

I feel anxious about my future—college, work, relationships, faith. Everyone keeps telling me to ‘have it figured out,’ but inside I feel lost and afraid of making the wrong choices.

Is it a lack of faith to feel this unsure? How do I hear God clearly when my mind feels so overwhelmed?”
ㅤ
Hi Alyssa — thank you for trusting me with such an honest question.
ㅤ
What you’re feeling is more common than you realize, especially among young adults today. Feeling uncertain doesn’t mean your faith is weak—it means you’re standing at an important crossroads.
ㅤ
Here’s what I want you to know:
Being unsure doesn’t mean God is absent — it often means He’s inviting you closer.
ㅤ
Pressure says, “Decide everything now.”
God says, “Walk with Me one step at a time.”
ㅤ
✨ God does not rush His plans — He reveals them in seasons.
✨ Anxiety about the future does not disqualify you — it signals a heart that cares deeply.
✨ You don’t need the full map — only the next obedient step.
ㅤ
Alyssa, when fear and confusion start to crowd your thoughts, pray this simple prayer:
ㅤ
“Lord, quiet my mind and steady my heart.
Help me trust You with what I cannot yet see.”
ㅤ
And remember this: you are not behind, broken, or failing. You are becoming. God’s will is not a race — it’s a relationship.
ㅤ
If you’d like, I’d love to share a devotional and a copy of:

(With parental approval if needed.)
ㅤ
Stay anchored. Stay prayerful. Your future is safer in God’s hands than in your own plans.
