Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be the glory

TRUST

For some reason this word has been heavy on my heart the last 8 hours...yes even while I was sleeping. It all started when I was riding with one of my friends and we were having a good conversation. She ended up saying "do you TRUST that God will provide you with..." Ok that made me start thinking right then and there. Then during the night I was having a dream (that was really good :) ) but it again made me think...how much do I trust that God will provide THIS for me. It was heavy on my heart so 6:45 a.m., I decide I needed to do some typing to get this out.

Because do I truly believe and trust God with everything in me. That He will provide a husband for me. That He will provide my finances for me. That He will provide protection for me. That He will provide food for me. That He will provide this or that for me. How many times have I questioned God's ability or my trust...which is extremely stupid of me because God has it ALL under control and taken care of if I put ALL of my trust in Him. It says time and time again in the Bible to trust God, if you trust God, etc.

I looked up the word trust in the dictionary and this is what it said:
Trust (verb)
-to have trust or confidence in; rely or depend on.
-to believe.
-to expect confidently; hope (usually fol. by a clause or infinitive as object)
-to commit or consign with trust or confidence.
-to permit to remain or go somewhere or to do something without fear of consequences
-to invest with a trust; entrust with something.
-to give credit to (a person) for goods, services, etc., supplied:

Some scriptures that slapped me in the face about trust:

2 Samuel 7:28
Sovereign LORD, you are God! Your covenant is trustworthy, and you have promised these good things to your servant.

1 Chronicles 5:20
They were helped in fighting them, and God delivered the Hagrites and all their allies into their hands, because they cried out to him during the battle. He answered their prayers, because they trusted in him.

Psalm 13:5
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

Psalm 25:1
[ Psalm 25 ] Of David. In you, LORD my God, I put my trust.

Psalm 32:10
Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD’s unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in him.

Psalm 37:5
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:

Psalm 62:8
Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.

Psalm 143:8
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.

Proverbs 3:5
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;

Isaiah 26:4
Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD himself, is the Rock eternal.

Nahum 1:7
The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him,

Heavenly Father, I want to stop doubting you and your abilities and let you put your whole hand in to do the work. I need to put behind me that I am capable of doing it because my abilities cannot even compare to a pin point of yours. My trust needs to be in you and in your alone. I TRUST YOU!!!
