Sometimes in the midst of crisis and chaos all you need are a few bible verses about trusting God to bring you peace and comfort.
We all get to the point in our lives when we need to let go and let God take care of it. But most of the time we are incapable of this because it means letting go of the control we so desperately want over ours lives.
Thankfully when we’re faced with leaning on Him we have specific bible verses about trusting God.
I know one way or another God is going to take care of my family and me. It probably won’t be the way I want it to be but that’s what God is trying to teach us. We’re not always going to get exactly what we want, exactly how we want it. But we will always be taken care of and protected if we put our trust in him.

Whenever I am scared or anxious about something happening in my life my mom is always the first to offer me biblical advice. The example she uses time and time again is Moses and the Red Sea. After fleeing Egypt, Moses and the Israelites were trapped between Pharaoh and the Red Sea, with no where else to turn but to God.
Exodus 14:13-14 says, “And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.”
Then God split the sea, Moses led the Israelites through, and the Egyptians were washed away when they tried to follow. The Israelites were never in any danger because all along God had a plan for them.
Just like God has a specific plan for you and all you have to do is trust in him to bring you to the other side of the sea. I know how hard it can be to actually let go and give your problems to God. This list of bible verses about trusting God are to remind us that no matter what is going on, all you need to do it trust God to walk you through it.
