We all have treasures we want to protect—whether they’re valuable heirlooms, rare collectibles, or irreplaceable memories. That’s why we rely on safety deposit boxes in banks, trusting them to keep our most precious possessions secure. But what if there was a place even safer, where nothing could ever be lost, stolen, or destroyed?
The truth is, God offers a security far greater than any vault on earth. When you entrust something to Him, it’s protected by His unfailing love and power. Unlike human promises, which can fail, God’s track record is perfect. He never loses what is placed in His care.
So, what do you need to entrust to Him today?
The One Thing You Need to Surrender to God Right Now
The answer is simple: your worries. Whatever is keeping you up at night—your fears, your future, your finances, or your failures—belongs in God’s hands.
Worrying is more than just stress; it’s practical atheism. It’s living as if God doesn’t exist, as if you’re alone in the universe with no Heavenly Father to help you. Worry rejects the thousands of promises God has made in Scripture, choosing fear over faith.
But here’s the problem: Pain makes trust difficult. When you’re hurting, your instinct is to hold on tighter, not let go. You may even question whether God really cares.
The apostle Paul understood this struggle. Even in chains, facing execution, he declared:
“I am suffering here in prison. But I am not ashamed of it, for I know the one in whom I trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until the day of his return.”
2 Timothy 1:12 (NLT)
Paul’s confidence wasn’t in his circumstances but in the One who held his future.
What If I Fail After Trusting God?
Some people hesitate to surrender their lives to Christ, fearing they won’t be able to keep their commitment. Here’s the liberating truth: You don’t have to be strong enough.
Your salvation—and your security—don’t depend on your ability to hold on to God. They depend on **His ability to hold on to you. Jesus never breaks a promise. When you place your life, your worries, and your future in His hands, He will guard them—forever.
