The Open Door Message of the Week

Seek First: Letting Go of Control and Trusting the King

James Douglas

As another year comes to a close, we’re reminded of how little control we truly have over the future—and how much peace we find when we stop trying to carry it ourselves. Rooted in Matthew 6:33, this episode invites us to step out of anxiety and into trust by choosing to seek God’s Kingdom first.

Reflecting on the past year and looking ahead to an uncertain future, this message explores what it means to release control, love God and others sacrificially, trust the Lord one step at a time, and let go of what’s behind so we can press forward into what God has next. The future may be unknown, but the invitation remains the same: seek first the Kingdom and trust the King who is fully in control.
