Faith chat summary and scripture references
An effective way to reduce stress and confusion in your life is to let things unfold instead of trying to plan every single detail of your calling. God has called us to live by faith, not by a long-term strategic plan. Yes, planning is important, but if we are not watchful, planning can easily turn into trusting a plan over trusting God.
