Oct. 10, 2006 - Trust in the Lord
I know that a lot of us (if not all of us) have heard that we should "Trust in the Lord". Also, how many of us have actually said it to someone that was going through turmoil. I know I have. Over the last few days I have said this over and over to myself. I am tired of all the drama in my life. And during most of my dramatic life I have not truly trusted in the Lord. That is why He allows turmoil. He wants us to trust in Him and Him alone. I know some of the time we cause our own situations, good or bad. But God's hand is in it all. A lot of the situations in my life I have caused, I could have went another way but I didn't and I had to suffer the consequences for my actions. But all of us know that there are times we don't deserve what happens to us and we are told to "trust in the Lord". That is difficult! Why is that??? I am a child of the Most High King! I am His princess. Why can it be so difficult to lay all of my worries and cares upon Him? But today, I am there...I am truly trusting in the Lord. Sure, I believe there will be days when doubt will enter my head but today, right now, I am trusting in Him. I can't control anyone but myself, and I can only put ALL of my trust in Him...I learned that one the hard way.
So, today I am praying for all of you. I know I am not the only one that has struggled with this or is currently struggling with this. There is always hope and hope has a name...JESUS.
