Listen "Fear of the Future"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we talk honestly about the fear that can come with thinking about the future. Biiftuu vulnerably shares her own story—how questions like “Where is my life going?” or “What will I become?” used to fill her with anxiety. But she also shares how the Lord met her in that fear and gently led her into freedom. Followers of Jesus aren’t called to be in control—we’ve surrendered the right to lead. And when we try to take that role back, we often invite fear, confusion, and unrest.
We also draw from the story of the Israelites in exile when God spoke those well-known words in Jeremiah 29:11: “For I know the plans I have for you…” These weren’t words spoken during a peaceful, thriving season—they were spoken in the middle of exile, in the midst of uncertainty and disappointment. Even when our surroundings feel like chaos, God’s plans are steady and secure.
This episode is a reminder that you don’t need to know every detail of the future when you’ve become well acquainted with the Person of Jesus. Trust isn’t built by knowing the plan—it’s built by knowing the One who holds it.
