Do you Really Trust God?

 Trust in the Lord(A) with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths(B) straight.[a](C) Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

Do you ever  find yourself  at crossroad of your  emotions vs.  fully trusting God?  It's  like  a  power struggle  between   what you  feel in that moment and  Gods truth.  We  often times become  blinded by our  on fleeting emotions and what we think we  know because we value  our  own "truth"  more than  Gods truth. 

 What we must understand is that  Gods truth is bullet  proof and in this instance when we are relying on ourselves more than  God  we  need to  take a  step back and realign ourselves with the him.   No  circumstance is  too big for  God and nothing takes Him by  surprise in Proverbs  3:5-6 God  says if we  submit all of our ways to Him he will make our paths straight. This means that God takes all the guess work out and  our responsibility is to take him at His word.

 Ah, Sovereign Lord,(A) you have made the heavens and the earth(B) by your great power and outstretched arm.(C) Nothing is too hard(D) for you. Jeremiah 32:17 (NIV)

Learning not to lean on our own understanding  begins with developing  a better understanding of  God  and  developing a  better understanding of God comes  through  studying his word.  That  means we  need to  purposely set aside time to draw from the endless resources that God has given us. 

Ask yourself this today Will I trust my ever  changing  emotions or our heavenly Father who never changes?  He  promises to never leave or forsake us and to  make  our paths  straight that  sounds like a win to me.  What ever is holding you back ask  God to remove it and increase your faith. We  fall short when we  try to figure out everything on our own so resolve to give  all of your concerns over to God  and stand in His  truth.

Love,
