Trust is not something
we can do when it’s convenient or easy for us to do. We must trust in the Lord always. No matter how impossible or difficult it may
seem to be, we must trust in the Lord.
We are prone to trust in our own judgment or the advice of others before
we trust the Lord. So much of the
decisions we make in life do not flow from trusting in the Lord. We may trust Him with the big things, but
when it comes to the little things we are more apt to handle them
ourselves.
What we must understand
is that trust is a way of life for the redeemed. If we truly believe what we say we believe
about God, we will trust Him in all things.
We say that God is trustworthy because He is absolute perfection in all
things good and holy. We say that He is
all knowing and understanding. We say
that He is incapable of wrong judgments.
We say that He is all powerful, able to do supply whatever we may need. We say that He is love and will always do
what is best for us. We say that He has
a plan for our lives and is moment-by-moment working it out in our lives for
our good. We say these things and claim
to believe them, but fail to turn to Him and trust Him for many things in our
lives.
We must be honest
about ourselves and admit that we are not always the most reliable people to
trust. We don’t have a good handle on
many things. We are too emotionally
attached to be objective in many things.
Our judgment is often clouded by our emotions. We are short-sighted and do not see the
bigger picture. We like to think that we
are so wise, but we are not. We need the
Lord’s perspective on things in order for us to make good decisions in life.
Dear friend, if you
find yourself not trusting the Lord always, please reconsider what you are
doing. The Lord is our eternal
Rock. He alone can be trusted to never
fail. He alone is able to help you come
out on top. He alone is unwavering and
true to His Word. You can and must
believe what He promises if you are going to live life in Christ. You will overcome all things and have peace
always if you trust in the Lord to help you in all things big and small.
Don’t waver in
this. Trust the Lord always in all
things for He is our Rock and salvation.
