An amazing thing to have is TRUST and that trust I speak of is trust in God not just confidence or trust in self. It also is sometimes the hardest thing for us as humans to do however..
God says without faith, it is hard to please him. How can faith began without trust. Also, how can anyone seek after what they don't trust in. I know this much, if someone I love lied to me over and over, cheated on me, stole from me, slandered me or continued to hurt me and take me for granted even though I gave them my all.. I could not trust them nor will I pursue the relationship with them, I would have to surrender to being a friend only.I could only do so if repentance /change took hold of them, then trust can be established and a true friendship will begin again. So trust is something as human beings we must earn since we all make mistakes and are all sinners but with God, he is sin free and is loyal to love us and forgive inspite of what we do. I know even the best efforts we make as humans, we will hurt one another but we'll all want to be trusted. So trust is a gift to have in any relationship and can't be cheapened and our relationships can't survive without it. The remedy we need to help us gain trust is knowing God who is trustworthy and the more we know and trust him, we will become more like him because we trust his plans for us. So, the greatest form of love I see for God is trust which will equal obedience. So again, What is Trust for you & what does it look like.Trust takes blind steps of faith. It doesn't need to know all the answers or how or where a path will lead to beforehand. It just hopes for the best, and as believers, children of God.. we know God has our best in mind and expects to see Gods best in every step & waits in expectation. But on the real tip.. sometimes we learn to trust after kicking and screaming our way towards Gods voice as he drags us by our feet to where we could of been if only we trusted in the first place. Our fear/doubt will tire us out lol and what could of taken 1 month, 1yr.. takes much longer. What heartache it is too doubt. No wonder God says: Hebrews 11:6 it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists & that he will reward those who sincerely seek him.Not coming to him kicking and screaming. Why does Trust hurt sometimes. Why do we make it scary sometimes. If we would only Trust first and act vs doubt & suffer then we will receive the rewards God promises. He understands it's hard to have blind faith but it's needed in order for our faith to grow. Mathew 17:20 Don't we love it when we can taste and see how good God is. Trust.. Easy said than done but for all of us who take steps of faith and continue too are exercising our faith and gaining more trust in God .. We know and can say, God is real!
