“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path.” Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV)
How many times do we depend on our own worldly ways to take care of ourselves and our families? How many times do we think that we know more about our own situations than God possibly could? Maybe we think that He does not have time to care or maybe it is not important enough to bother God with? How often do we hear from God AND are we even listening?
God tells us in the above Scripture that we should completely trust in Him without trying to understand and to simply acknowledge Him and He will show us where we need to go. That sounds so easy, so why is it so hard to do?
Psalm 37:3-4 (NKJV) tells us to, “Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.”
Again, simply trust in Him and do good. Stay and grow by His faithfulness to us, but in return, we are to enjoy our relationships with Him. In doing so, he will give us whatever our hearts desire. Are we getting the desires of our hearts?
We should be in a constant state of joy because being in a relationship with Him is the ultimate high. When and how are we going to finally say, "Okay, Lord, here it is? I will no longer doubt your will for me. I am giving You charge of my life. I am releasing it to You. You have known me since before I was born. You know my future. I trust You with my life, my family, my job, my finances, and my health. Your will be done, not mine. I am trusting in You. In Jesus’ Precious Name, Amen."
Paul tells us in Romans 8:38-39 (NKJV), “For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
How can we not trust in love like that?
May God Bless You Some More!
