Trust

24 October  2012  

Psalms 31:14 But I trust in thee, O LORD, I say, "Thou art my God."

To have faith is to have trust, so when we have faith in something or someone then we trust in them. So when we are married we are full of faith in our spouse and we trust them with everything, we are faithful. So we know that when we have faith we are able to rely on the trust that we have that all will be right.

The difficulty is that we often loose faith and trust because what we want does not necessarily happen when we want it to happen. This distrust starts as we realise that what people say they often do not mean, so when we are promised something for doing something and then we do not get it, we learn to distrust even our own parents. This brings about a change in  us of unbelief in faith. The problem is that we make God in the image of men instead of men being the image of God. God is faithful and trustworthy, man is not.

So when we understand that we are able to trust God and have faith in Him, then we need to re-learn and grow in faith and trust in Him. The more we trust God the more our faith grows, the more we realise how trustworthy God is.

Be encouraged today to trust God.
