And a beautiful gift containing God’s Word is a great way to share your faith.

Be honest, do you find it hard to trust God? I think to some extent, we all do. That’s probably why there are over 100 verses in the Bible that talk about trust. We see it in Proverbs, where it says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. (Prov 3:5-6) And then in Psalms we read, Trust in him at all times, O people. Pour out your heart before him. (Psalm 62:8)

I read these verses and many other verses on trust, yet there are still times when I struggle to trust God. Much less trust God in all things. My years of studying the Bible and my spiritual being tells me to trust God, yet my human tendency is to question that trust and to want to control everything. After all, trusting God means my letting go of control, and if He’s in control He may end up taking me out of my comfort zone!

Looking back there were many times in my life where I did trust God (in some cases I had no other choice!), and in hindsight, it’s clear that He does work through all things for our good. Remembering those times encourages me to set aside my human desire to control things and to stay focused on trusting Him. Which brings me to this month’s theme verse:

But blessed are those who trust in the Lord
    and have made the Lord their hope and confidence.

Jeremiah 17:7 (NLT)
