Trust

Trust

\trəst\ trēowe – faithful, assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something b: one in which confidence is placed

I think a lot of people really struggle with the concept of trust.

· I see kids at the pool struggle to trust their dad to catch them as they prepare to jump in.
· I watch couples struggle to trust each other when one of them says, “I have to work late tonight, don’t bother staying up for me.”
· I hear employees complain that they struggle to trust their boss who told them, their job is secure.

With all this struggling to trust I wonder how many of us really believe that we can trust a living God?

There’s this verse I’ve read too many times to count that talks about, ‘trusting in the Lord with all my heart.’

To me that means no matter what circumstance I find myself in, I’m able to have the confidence that God is working his will out in my life for my improvement.

For me, the biggest struggle I have with trust, is why wouldn’t everyone want to place their confidence in a God who’s never let anyone down?
