I know I've written a blog previously about trusting in God...and do we really trust Him? It's easy to say that we trust God...we can even quote many scriptures that tell us to trust Him. But the truth of the matter is, we will always try and handle things in our own strength. It may not seem that way, but we do it all the time...or at least I can say that I do. I never thought that I was doing it on my own until I was brought to a place in my life where I realized it. God allowed me to be put in a situation where I could be tried in the trusting department... and surrendering completely to Him. I say He's my provider, He's my strength..but when this problem arised, I found myself going above and beyond trying to fix it myself...and it just wasn't working. I told God, okay... I'm done... I'm giving it to You. Then hours later, I'm trying again (in my own strength) to fix the problem. A solution wasn't coming fast enough... the deadline was approaching... Still, nothing has changed. I've done all I can do. And to no avail. So now, there's nothing left for me to do but trust God!
He spoke to me and said "STOP! I am faithful and I am just. I will do what I said I will do." All I have to do is keep my mind on Him... keep doing His will, and all my needs will be met. He is able!
And I thank Him for allowing me to be in a situation...where it seems that everything is falling apart. I know that something great will come of it...and more importantly, I will know who God is to me... He is my provider. He is my keeper. He is my healer. He is my deliverer. He IS my everything! What is He to you?
Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. - Psalm 37:3
