Constant Trust
Posted on Jan 06, 2008 under Faith |Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to Him, for God is our refuge.
It’s been quite a while since I thought about trusting God. I used to pray about trust almost every day. You see, I decided a long time ago to trust God to the planning of my family. I figured that there was no way that husband and I could know better than God how many kids we ought to have. For many reasons, it took a leap of immense faith to continue to trust Him after the birth of my daughter. But we did. And He took care of us.
Sometimes doubt clouds my mind and I reason that God is so busy with other, more important issues that I shouldn’t expect him to tend to my life just because I’ve decided to trust Him with the details. That thinking is flawed, of course, since God just doesn’t fit neatly into the human box that I’ve built around Him. He wants to be a part of my life, regardless of how mundane or inconsequential it is in the grand theme of things.
Trust. I must remember to trust His love and His care for me. I must remember to trust that He knows better than I do in every situation. I must work on trusting Him enough to not worry, not stress, not pore over every detail of every dilemma I face. I must trust Him to show me the answer because His answer is always right.
