Trust Him and Look Up~

 

 

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. (Proverbs 3:4 KVJ)

 

To have peace is to be content and fulfilled in ways that only the Lord can accomplish…this will happen when we trust Him implicitly for all aspects of our lives. To live in a state of tranquility—irrespective of controversial monstrosities that encroach upon us—is to trust Him which brings an inner peace that only God can grant.

When we trust anything other than God and His word we’re inviting disaster into our lives. When we depend upon Him for everything—He will direct all of our paths. (Proverbs 3:5) Of course we have free will, that’s a given…but going outside the “will of God” can result in repercussions that will become glaringly apparent in time.

To trust God is a surrendering of self in a deeply profound sense. It’s the ability to immerse ourselves in His word and meditate on His will for our purpose in life. We all have a purpose, each one different, and each a separate time table. Our inherent goal as followers of Christ is to walk by the spirit, while avoiding “things of the world” that can inhibit our spiritual growth.  When we thwart the existence of His light we ultimately give invitation to things resulting in disaster.

We’ll fall short many times in our lives, but the good news is God is longstanding, and His mercy endures forever. When we trust and consult Him for all things we’ll walk the path of righteousness and mirror His reflection. Trust Him and begin to live for Him, I promise your cup will overflow.
