Interested in a better way to face the hard times in this life? Ready to stop worrying and instead have peace about the future?

When you learn to trust God and allow him to lead your life, you will find God’s peace and strength through any storm.

I’ve been in the storm. In fact, too many storms. I’ve nearly been pulled under by some of them, wondering if I’d ever make it out. As I’ve battled (and worried and fought and grieved), I’ve discovered better ways to face these trials in my life. I’ve been able to replace worry with God’s peace which passes understanding, scrambling for solutions with trust in God’s answers, fear with confidence in God’s strength.

Sounds too good to be true? Or, would you also like to discover how to face the trials in your life with peace, trust, and confidence, instead of fear, worry, and frantic scrambling? It’s possible – so, let’s start today looking at the four key steps I took (and you can, too) to learn to trust God and find his peace and strength in the storms of life.

4 Keys to Learn to Trust God

#1: Pray First

Where do you turn first when troubles come into your life? How do you react to the trials in your life?

To be honest, I often turn to worry first, then to Google or Facebook, which usually only add to the worry. I try to find solutions and next steps, but mostly fret and complain about what I’m facing.

If I turn to prayer first, though, I can skip all that worry. God reminds me that he’s in charge and he has it covered. I can share the troubles with God and find peace through him. I’ve learned I can lean on God for support through the hard times and trust him to show me the right next steps.

Pray instead of worry. Trust God for the solutions.

#2: Take a Step in Faith

What is your response to crisis? Do you go into fight or flight mode? Some of us naturally go into fight mode, taking any step or action we can find, often without much thought into the consequences of that step. Others of us go into flight mode, retreating from the conflict, not taking any action because we’re too afraid to take a step, fearing it might be the wrong one.

What if instead, we listened closely for God’s next steps and stepped out in faith?

When I’m in prayer and listening to God, I know he’ll lead me to the right next steps. I don’t have to rush out and create my own solutions. I don’t have to retreat and hide either. I know I can step forward in confidence that God will guide my steps.

Listen in prayer and trust God to show you the next steps. Then, step forward in faith.

#3: Keep Jesus Close

Do you feel alone in your fight? Does it seem that the world is against you and you have nowhere to turn?

Remember you always have Jesus in your corner. He is there by your side if you’ll only invite him in. He’ll provide support, guidance, and peace in your troubles.

How do you keep him close, though? Pray and invite him into your life and into your situation. Open your Bible and get to know him. Ground yourself in prayer and Scripture every day, keeping your eyes and heart fixed on him.

Invite Jesus into your life. Ground yourself in Scripture. Keep Jesus close and he’ll deliver you from the trials.

#4: Remember God is Faithful and Powerful

Do you think God has the power to help in your situation? Do you think he will actually intervene in your life?

Take a look at scripture and remind yourself of God’s power and faithfulness. There’s no problem he can’t solve, no trouble that’s too big. He has power and dominion over all the earth and can work in ways you can’t even imagine. Remind yourself of all the times he’s intervened in similar situations throughout scripture and recall what he’s done in your life.

Write out a list of Scriptures to remind you of God’s power, make note of all he’s done in your life and in the lives of others you know. Keep these reminders close, imprinting God’s promises deeply in your heart.

God does still get involved in our lives and has complete power over this world. Trust in him and believe in his power.

You CAN have peace and strength through any storm life brings your way – if you’ll learn to trust God.
