Trusting

Trusting in the Lord


Proverbs 20:24 Man’s goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?

***



At times we are prone to worry and become frantic about our future,
And at times we fret and wonder how God can work through such things. For example, have you ever had to study for a test on your hardest subject? Have you ever lost something very important to you?  Has someone you loved ever been in a bad car accident? Or a friend diagnosed with Cancer?
Circumstances like this can cause us to worry, with fear and doubts. The "horizon" of life suddenly looks bleak.
When problems bother us we can take our burdens to the Lord, and He will take it! At moments we may still worry some, but God gives the victory and the "sun comes back out."



Proverbs 20:24 tells us how God has chosen the paths our lives and how He knows every part of it. It goes on to ask "How can a anyone know what God's plans are?"

A young lady once said,

"I trusted God with my soul for Eternity... but I struggle to trust Him with the little things in life? The "big" things too. If I trust God about Heaven, why can I not trust Him with things here on earth? Thankfully this is something I am gaining the victory in, very slowly, but surely! And I am learning to take my burdens to the Lord, and leave them there!"


Trusting the Lord is a day-by-day choice.
At times it may be easy, and at other times it may be hard,
but the BEST thing you can do when troubles come is to Trust the Lord!
