Trust Issues

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. - Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

We've always taught our kids the value of trust. Sure, they've made mistakes and cost themselves the trust of their parents but they've also learned to treasure it all that much more when they earn it back. Trust takes time to build and can be destroyed in a flash. I'll bet most of us have put our trust in someone or something only to see it destroyed. We've dealt with the aftermath of having our faith dashed like glass against a rock.

How wonderful it is, then, that God is a sure thing! We are free to put our full faith and reliance on God with the certainty that He is going to come through for us. There is no such thing as God betraying the trust of one of His children.

Today is the Lord's day, so rejoice and be glad in it knowing that you have a Father in Heaven that always has your back!
