Page 6 - Trusting God Sample

Him? Speaking from experience this was the hardest thing for me – to trust God

for the provision and not put my hands all over it. Sometimes we make a mess

trying to help God, but God does not need our help, we just need to trust Him.

So what is trust? Trust is the assured reliance on the character, ability,

strength, or truth of someone or something. Let’s add God to that, trusting God is

the assured reliance on God’s character, God’s ability, God’s strength, and God’s

truth; that’s pretty deep, isn’t it? Trusting God means that we can rely on his

ability, put our full weight on His strength, and believe that He will always tell us

the truth. Even knowing that, sometimes, it’s hard to put our full weight on God,

but before you take the wheel away from Him, let me offer you five reasons to put

your full weight on God. I am sure that you’ve heard every scripture before, but as

my Bishop, Steven Hodge, says hear it again for the first time and this time really

take a moment to think about it, meditate on it, and then let the word begin to

change you from being a backseat driver to just giving God the keys.
