To Whom It May Concern

Published on May 20, 2019


If you’re reading this letter, you’re concerned. About kidnapped girls. Missing planes. Wayward children. A diagnosis. You’re concerned about a loved one. A bend in the road. A misunderstanding. A hurting friend.

There’s much in this world to bring concern. Concerns can rightfully be called “troubles.
But I’m not writing this letter to stir up our troubles, but to share what Jesus said.
He said, “See that you are not troubled” (Matthew 24:6).  We’re concerned. And rightfully so. But Jesus said not to be troubled.

Because “in the world [we] will have tribulation.”  But “Be of good cheer,” He also said. “I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).

We are children of the God who reigns (Psalm 47:8).

This world will become the kingdom of our Lord (Revelations 11:15).

God is on our side (Psalm 124:1).

In this world, we will have tribulation. But, to all who are concerned, rest in the One who said, “I have overcome” it all. Rest in the One who knows why we have no cause to be troubled.

He knows the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10).

Nothing escapes the reach of His hand (Isaiah 59:1).

Our God reigns (Psalm 47:8).

To whom it may concern, rest in the One who is compassionately aware of concerns, reigning over them, long-suffering, on-time, able to do exceeding, abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20).

Our God is big enough, compassionate enough, powerful enough, and more present than our human hearts realize.

Do not be troubled.

See to it.

Sincerely, Concerned, yet seeking to not be troubled
