Don't Worry, He's Got It

Jeremiah 17:7-8:
7Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
8For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.


I was reading these verses this morning, and I was really blessed. Especially by this line in verse 8, "and shall not see when the heat cometh." Think about that. I mean REALLY think about it.
It doesn't just say that the heat doesn't bother those who are grounded in the Lord. It says that we won't even see the heat. In other words, the problems of life won't ever seem like problems because we have our trust in the ONE who is bigger than all problems.
If we trust in Christ, the trials of this life don't weaken us. We keep on keeping on for Christ because we KNOW that He is in control. And because of our trust in Christ, we continue to bear fruit even in the hardest times. Others will want what we have because we have a God we CAN depend on no matter what.
So the question is, do you have that much trust in Him? Are you resting in the fact that He has everything under control?
