Trust

Trusting God. I do believe it is the hardest thing we must ever do in our lives. And right now I am in the middle of that battle. It is too often so hard. It is hard to trust God and His sovereignty. It is hard to believe that He has the best in store for you. It is so very hard to wait for the future, for that moment when you know that you've finally arrived, even if it is just a tiny fraction of that which you have been trusting in for so long. Why is it so hard? That is a question I ask myself often. God has promised that He will take care of us. He has told us that so many times in the Bible. Yet why is it to hard to trust, to believe that? I will never understand. I guess as humans we know what we want and we want it now. And with God, we have to wait, for what He will give us. I know what I want, and I just want God to give me a hint at what He is going to give me. I guess we just have to pray the hardest prayer, "Your will be done." Maybe that's what trust is; handing your day over to God and asking Him to do whatever He wants. It's time for us to start giving everything to God, it's time to stop being our own. We were never our own in the first place, so what gives us the right now? We have always been God's, it's time to start living like that.
