Trust is Essential to Living life to the Full



TRUST IN THE LORD’S TIMING TOO!

"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."
- Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT)

A lot of times we pay lip service to the fact that we trust God, but really in our hearts we don't, because we often times make our own plans in the background; we pray about stuff and yet try to solve our issues by our human wisdom. Sometimes, God asks us to do seemingly ridiculous things, like putting water inside water pots, drawing it out and serving it...'ooops, but it is wine we needed sir', .....God is wiser than us.

The bible says that before we were even formed in our mother's womb, God knew us, He knows our end from our beginning and He has the time-table for our lives.

However, often times, we miss God's timing or even his plan for our lives because we don't seek His face to understand His plans. Many attend church, crusades, conventions etc, not to truly SEEK God’s face, but to try and GET something from God, they are after God’s hand not His heart, however the bible is giving us the pathway to divine and precise direction from God.

We are being challenged to 'Trust' in the Lord with 'ALL' of our hearts.
Trust has been described as 'to have belief or confidence in the honesty, goodness, skill or safety of a person, organization or thing', we need to have belief and confidence in the honesty, goodness, skill and safety of God, He is the Almighty and cannot fail, and when we truly 'trust', we will not try to do things with our own understanding.

We need to overcome the temptation of relying on our human wisdom; we must stop calculating and planning outside God's will and plan. When we find ourselves in a dilemma or challenging situation, instead of first of all running to our friends or people around us, we should seek God's face FIRST, and He will even direct us to the right person to talk to or give precise instruction, God is wiser than us and He is the ONLY One who can NEVER make a mistake or judge wrongly.

'Trusting God truly and totally’ will lead us to divine destination with no hassle, because His yoke is easy and His burden is light. You can live a stress-free life by just TRUSTING.
Have a brilliant week!

Confession

I choose to Trust in the Lord with all my heart, I will not depend on human understanding, but will seek God's will in all I do, and I know He will direct and guide my ways.
Halleluyah!

Thoughts for Inspiration

"Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure. The way you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You are overcome by the fact because you think you are."
- Norman Vincent Peale.
