March 19, 2010 - What If

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart; DO NOT depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will direct your paths." Proverbs 3:5-6"

WHAT IF

'What happens if you waver on the 'with all your heart' part?
Instead, you depend upon your own understanding as far as it will go then you turn to God usually in exasperation or desperation.

You trust in the Lord only when you have no other choice?
Think about it-you fight-you struggle-you worry-you fret-you wonder-you rationalize-you plan based on every number of scenarios-and then you trust in the Lord? I don't think so. It actually becomes harder to trust in Him after all the above, you would probably even trust Him less as things didn't or wouldn't turn out your own way.

If you want peace-real peace-supernatural peace in every situation, you need to start with 'TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART'. Acknowledge His Lordship, His Sovereignty, His control, His plan, His will, His love and His promise that all things work to the good of those who love you, who are called according to His purpose.

What a relief that would be-You don't have to bear the burdens of the world on your shoulders, what a release; you don't have to keep assuming the responsibilities of keeping the world running smoothly.

You can release it into the hands of the One who spoke the world into existence and who maintains it quite well without your help, thank you very much!

Oh, Lord, I trust in You,
What about you? DF

Rejoice in the Lord Always!
