Have you thanked Him?
Have you praised Him?
Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?
Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?
1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)
The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.
Got a big test, big meeting; maybe an unexpected or worse yet, inexplicable shift in circumstances?
Someone trip you up? Someone let you down?
Got one of those “Where did you go GOD” feelings brewing?
Got one of those “I’m not so sure about this GOD” feelings brewing?
Ok…Ok…
Corral those feelings!
All together now, let’s breathe! 1,2,3...
Ready now?
TRUST GOD!
I know, I know…the Pastor’s “go to answer”!
But what would you expect? It is rooted in truth.
…trust the Lord completely; don’t ever trust yourself. In everything you do, put God first, and he will direct you and crown your efforts with success. Proverbs 3:5-6 (ERV)
It is the “right answer”. It helps with the unknowns of life. Trust me.
The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living.
Hebrews 11:1 (MSG)
Life is going to levy the unexpected, it is going to surprise us, frustrate us, depress us, test us and it even sometimes can completely derail us. But the believer who TRULY trusts has the foundation that can weather the best that life wants to dish out.
We all experience times of testing, which is normal for every human being. But God will be faithful to you. He will screen and filter the severity, nature, and timing of every test or trial you fact so that you can bear it. And each test is an opportunity to TRUST him more…1 Corinthians 10:13 (TPT)
Even Mother Teresa has had her “trusting” tried.“
I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much.” ― Mother Teresa
So, we will too.
So today, burrow into that firm foundation and set your feet on the sure footing that comes with from the truth; that truth you have heard repeatedly, but sometimes forget.
GOD CAN BE TRUSTED!
May everyone who knows your mercy
keep putting their TRUST in you,
for they can count on you for help no matter what.
O Lord, you will never, no never, neglect those
who come to you. – Psalms 9:10 (TPT)
“Never be afraid to TRUST an unknown future to a known God.” ― Corrie Ten Boom
HAVE A BLESSED DAY!
Love you all!
