Do I trust God?

Completely.  With love.  With health. With finances. With employment.  With provisions.  With life.  Completely.  C O M P L E T E L Y.   I trust Him with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength.

Why?

Because He alone is Almighty, Faithful, Sovereign, Glorious, Exalted, Adored, and so much more.

Because He alone is our Healer, Strength, Encourager, Builder, Provider, and so much more.

Because He loves me and loves it when I sit and talk with Him awhile.  He also loves you and loves it when you take time out of your busy schedule to spend with Him.

Do I trust God?  I trust Him enough that I daily put my children and grandchildren and those I love in His hands for Him to watch over.

I trust Him enough that ten years ago October 5th I gave Him my daughter who had leukemia, and He chose to provide the marrow needed to heal her.  I can not praise Him enough.

Yesterday my little sister fell down a flight of stairs and is hurt pretty bad.  Still haven't received definite word on what is going on.  At first they said her hip was broken; the x-rays don't show a break.  She has a bad concussion (with 6 staples in her head!) and has lost memory.  How much I don't know.  Her bruised hip shows some bleeding of the arteries, and the doctors are tracking that, plus continuing to review x-rays and scans.  Do I still believe God was there?  Absolutely!  I believe God 'caught' her as she fell.  She could have broken her neck, she could have had severe breakage from the fall.   She has 'just enough' to slow her down.  I trust God for her complete and total healing - why?  Because she belongs to Him and I (and others) are interceding on her behalf.  Her body may struggle, but it is what is inside that counts.

My youngest child has completed Army tours of duty in Iraq and Ubekistan.  Did I trust God to bring him home safely?  Yes I did.  He is home but going through other battles and issues.  I still trust God to bring him through it.  Life is often a battle and how we respond to that battle is what makes us a better person. 

I can not glorify God's name enough.  I can not worship Him enough.  All I have has been a gift from Him.  All I am is my gift back to Him.   I fall short daily of all I want to do and be for Him, and He gives me His Grace every day to keep me on track.

I want to be a God-chaser.  I want to seek Him so desperately that in His love for me, He will show me a glimpse of His glory. 

Do you trust God?   Do you acknowledge that all you have is a gift from Him?  Perhaps you don't know Him as your Lord and Savior, but you know of Him.  It isn't just head knowledge, it is heart knowledge that draws you close.  Trust Him.  He is your Provider, your Strength, your Hope, your Salvation.

Blessings!
