Trust



When i was younger I used to like the Proverbs 3:5-6 very much. It was my favourite verse. However, over the years I have forgotten that it is important to trust in Him and not to rely on my own capabilities. What the world says and what God says is very different. It is hard to trust Him as what He says is often of the intangible and it takes great faith to do so. Whereas if we choose to follow the world we know for sure of the outcome. Often, i am afraid of failure, my own natural self comes into play and I choose to not to trust in Him. I forget of His promises and what awesome things He has done in my life. I am sure many are the same as me, Genesis 9:16 says: "The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth." Our God is faithful so we should start trusting. I think we should begin trusting Him for the little things and see how He moves, slowly we will also be able to trust in Him for the greater things.The song nothing is impossible puts in so greatly:" I am not going to live by what I see, I am not going to live by what I feel". This is exactly how we should live as a show of trust to Him. God bless.=)
"trust, trust in the Lord, lean not on your own understanding in all, all of your ways acknowledge Him and He'll make your paths straight....."
