Life has a way of placing us in situations where we simply do not know what to do. We pray for answers, beg for miracles, and search for wisdom and certainty, yet we often find ourselves standing in the middle of what feels like unanswered prayers and uncertainty. But It is in those moments that we can choose to hold on to God or move away from Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life challenges have taught me that being away from God is the worst way to handle life\u2019s challenges. It\u2019s been during the hardest times that God has shown up and been there for me, family and loved ones. It\u2019s been during those moments when I\u2019ve learned to remember that God has been present in the past and He will show up again in my life and in the lives of those who choose to see Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This life will have it\u2019s challenges regardless of what we think…The amazing thing is that God invites us to learn one of the greatest lessons of discipleship during these times and that is the lesson of TRUSTING Him completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faith begins with believing that God exists. I love to see the BIG PICTURE on life. I know that God exists when I look at the sun \u2600\ufe0f, the way all living things function, when I look at the animals and the beauty of this earth. I can see God when looking at the miracle of a newborn baby and how that works. I can see God in the way our own bodies work. In the planets on the molecules of water etc. Truly, ALL things testify that there is a God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, believing in God becomes stronger when we can see that we ourselves are a miracle and that we are know and created by that same divine light. That the love we\u2019re capable of feeling can only come from a God who planted that level of love in our hearts. \u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next step after believing is trusting. Trusting that He, our loving creator knows what He is doing…..even when we do not. It\u2019s fully letting go and trusting that He will take care of us and bringing what is best for us and the development that each one of us needs to gain in this life. \ud83e\udd0d\ud83d\ude4c\ud83c\udffc<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lord has never promised a life free of challenges, but He has promised that He will walk with us through them. Christ himself knows our suffering and put himself in our shoes to be able to comfort us and help us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is when we remember these words;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTrust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Proverbs 3:5\u20136)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notice that the scripture doesn\u2019t say, \u201cTrust when you understand.\u201d It says, \u201cLean not unto thine own understanding.\u201d In life we won\u2019t understand why things happen…sometimes we won\u2019t have answers…But true trust begins when we stop demanding to see the entire staircase or all of the answers and we simply take the next step God places before us. \ud83e\ude9c Taling the steps of trust and faith in Christ allows us to reach higher knowledge, wisdom and understanding than what we could gain on our own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God\u2019s greatest plan is for us to not be separated from Him, but instead He wants us to come to know Him and TRUST HIM all on our own free will and choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can remind ourselves that out Big Amazing God can see what we cannot see. He knows the end from the beginning. While we see only a small piece of the puzzle, He sees the entire picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust grows as we remember God\u2019s faithfulness in our lives. Every answered prayer, every tender mercy, and every moment of divine guidance, every moment that our heart was covered in peace, all of those things become evidence that He has never left us alone. Looking back often gives us the courage to move forward. \u23e9<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we have complete trust in Him, this also requires surrender. It means that we\u2019re willing to pray as the Savior prayed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.\u201d (Luke 22:42)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we trust in God we\u2019re better able to say; “Even if your answer Father, is different from what I hoped for, I know that YOU are guiding me with perfect wisdom and love.” \u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust begins when faith becomes stronger than fear. We no longer let our fears bring us down but instead we let that TRUST grow within us to fill us with the belief in a loving and caring God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love this scripture in Mathew 6:26<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lord who feeds the birds will feed you physically, mentally and spiritually. He knows your needs before you ask and He is ready to provide for your life. TRUST HIM & SEE HIS MIRACLES. \ud83d\udc9b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The miracle of trust is not always that our circumstances change immediately. Sometimes the miracle is that our hearts change. We find peace before the answer comes. We find strength before the trial ends. We find confidence that God is working, even when we cannot yet see how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we learn to trust Him, we begin to understand what the Lord taught:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Be still, and know that I am God.” \u2665\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Psalm 46:10)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trusting God means believing that His timing is right, His plan is good, and His love is constant, even when the path ahead is unclear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tonight in class we will do a meditation similar to this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a slow, deep breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you inhale, think:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“God is with me.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you exhale, think:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I trust Him.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine placing your worries, fears, and unanswered questions into the Savior’s hands. Allow yourself to rest in the truth that He is aware of you and is leading you one step at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our physical goal this week is: To take a 10-minute walk each day and use that time to notice God’s hand in the beauty around you. \ud83d\ude0d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Spiritual Goal: Each morning, identify one worry you are carrying and consciously give it to the Lord through prayer. Then ask yourself throughout the day:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Am I believing in God, or am I trusting Him?” \u2665\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I pray that this message will touch your heart and allow you feel that your TRUST is growing in God day by day. \ud83d\udc9b Love you all and I hope that you can make it to class tonight at 7pm not only my to release stress but also to strengthen our body, calm our mind and lift our spirit. \ud83e\udd70 \ud83d\udc9b See you there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
