I TRUST GOD

What is the most important question to ask yourself about God?  It's not whether you believe in God. Even demons believe in God.  Satan was one in the very presence of God and still rebelled.  It's not whether you love God.  Love as we understand it today is a warm fuzzy feeling.  Love is fickle as we see by our country's divorce rate.  The question is DO I TRUST GOD? Trust more than love is essential in a RELATIONSHIP. God desires relationship with us. He wants friendship and family with us.  That's why He gave us earthly families.  If you are lucky, you had a Dad or someone that you knew would protect you to the death.  Someone who would love you no matter what you'd done.  Who kissed boo boo's and would give the world just to see you smile. Someone who if they disciplined you, you knew it was still love.  Someone you trust. DO I TRUST GOD when it's hard? DO I TRUST GOD when the answer is no? DO I TRUST GOD when obeying Him hurts? DO I TRUST GOD when it's my children? DO I TRUST GOD when it's a terminal diagnosis.  DO I TRUST GOD with my last dime? DO I TRUST GOD to defend me?  To vindicate me? To lead me? To hear me? To love me? To defend me? DO I TRUST GOD? Do you?  If you don't know and I didn't for a loooong time you can.  Trust him just a tiny bit.  Mustard seed faith. He will show you miraculous things.  And one day you will know that you know that you know that God is faithful and true. Ask me.  I'll tell you why I TRUST GOD.
