“Trust”

Trust in the Lord with all your heart;

do not depend on your own understanding.

Seek his will in all you do,

and he will show you which path to take.

Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom.

Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil. Proverbs 3:5-7

Meditation:

Whenever, challenges arise, there are two ways to respond;

God’s way or our way; often, we choose our way, we usually follow the pattern of this world. We have seen what happens when we take matters into our own hands. When we make poor decisions, we experience painful, negative consequences, suffering, feeling guilty and having regrets… which causes us to experience negative emotions: anger, sadness, anxiety, depression, or fear.

People tend to Focus on the 'difficulty' instead of on the Lord. How often have you and I done this very same thing? If the unfairness, or the pain, or the situation grabs our attention, we can lose sight of our ALL-Powerful God.

We tend to, Rely, our own strength and understanding. When we are confronted with a problem or situation, the most natural response is to do whatever we can to make it right or to 'fix' it. We tend to Act impulsively instead of waiting on the Lord. If a situation seems urgent, fixing the problem as fast as possible easily becomes our top priority.Our way may seem so logical at the time, but it won’t accomplish God’s purposes.

All of us, at some point, have acted similarly and suffered the consequences of self-reliance. We need to be Intentional, in trusting God’s way and putting our Plans in his hands. We need to put this into practice:

“Don’t conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is his-his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Romans 12:2

If we want a better life, we need to Trust in God completely…! For those who do not have a relationship with God surrender to God, accept and follow Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. Experience the Process of transformation by the power of Jesus Christ, New life, life Eternal, a changed life Inside and out…!

Living under God’s will with Purpose and Mission…is Wonderful!

Prayer:

Thank you Father in Heaven; for sending Jesus Christ, to Save us and give us Salvation and a New Abundant life… a transformed life!

In Jesus’ name. Amen!
