“Will you trust me? Will you really trust me?”- Jesus
I know that I’ve been writing a lot about trust lately but I really feel God continually speak to me about it. There are desires of my heart I’ve been praying, trusting, and hoping for but when I’m with Jesus He repeatedly asks “Will you trust me?” I think a lot of times we have our mind made up how on when things should come to pass. But God is challenging me to trust. Trust even when it doesn’t look like I think it should.
He asked me “Will you still follow? Will you trust?” If that thing your hoping and waiting for doesn’t happen will you still choose Jesus? Honestly, I think 8 months ago when I was still in my relationship I would have said yes, but not truly been living it. The relationship I was in God had given me so many warnings. But I continued to twist His word to justify my will and my way. I tried to convince myself things were Gods will and not my own.
Don’t be fooled. Gods will won’t ask you to compromise. You won’t need to convince yourself it’s right. Gods will won’t cause you to go against what His word says. Ever. Don’t settle even when the waiting gets hard. What are you waiting on? Are you doing it your way because it seems like God is taking too long?
Trust me, I know the feeling. God promised me a husband and I am waiting on Him for that. Sometimes the waiting gets unbearable. But Gods way is always better than our way. He has our best interests in mind. Often we go through unnecessary hurt and stress trying to create our own way if only we would trust. Seek God. Ask the Holy Spirit to show you what to do. Because in the end no good thing can come from settling and compromising. Trust me on that as well! I wasted 3 years with someone because I was so desperate to fulfill the promise God gave me. It may feel good to satisfy that desire at the time, but most likely it’s going to be laced with the pain of deception. The enemy wants you to think it’s no big deal. But trust me! Gods prompting – the conviction you feel is protection.
Choose to trust fully. Give your whole heart and God will honor that. God will bless you with the desires of your heart as you surrender all to Him. Choose to trust God and the desires He has breathed into you because no word from God is impossible for Him. If God has promised it He will fulfill His word to you. God honors what you give Him in faith and obedience.
God loves you and you are His most prized possession. Others may have hurt you but God is always for you. He stands guard to protect and prosper you. Is He not worthy of all your trust? All your heart?
Remember You are Fearfully Made ❤
