Part 7: You Don’t Have to Know Everything
When the Future Feels Foggy
Verse of the Day:
“Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.”
— Matthew 6:33 (NLT)
One of the most stressful things about your 20s is feeling like you’re supposed to have it all figured out.
What career to choose.
Who to date.
Where to live.
How to make enough money.
What your “purpose” even is.
It feels like everyone else has a roadmap… and you’re just out here guessing.
But here’s the truth: you don’t have to know everything—because you know the One who does.
God Isn’t Asking for a Master Plan
God doesn’t hand us a full life map—He gives us steps.
One conversation at a time.
One opportunity at a time.
One act of faith at a time.
And while we’re obsessing over what’s next, He’s often asking:
“Will you trust Me right now?”
Walking by Faith in the Fog
Imagine driving through thick fog. You can only see a few feet ahead. But if you keep moving, the road reveals itself bit by bit.
Faith works like that.
You may not know what job you’ll have in five years. You may not know who you’ll marry. You may not even know what tomorrow holds.
But God does.
And if you’re seeking Him first—He promises to lead you, step by step.
“Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.” — Psalm 119:105 (NLT)
He’s not a floodlight. He’s a lamp.
Enough light for this step. And then the next.

A Prayer to Start Your Day
God, I don’t have all the answers—and that scares me sometimes. But I choose to seek You first. Help me let go of the pressure to have everything figured out. Guide my steps and give me peace in the unknown. I trust that You are working, leading, and providing—even when I can’t see the whole path. Amen.
