Trust.

MORNING THOUGHTS ☕️

I saw a friend post recently about not trusting. I’ve been thinking about that this morning. I encouraged her to trust again. Forgive again. Try again. We’ve ALL been hurt. None of us are immune to being hurt by humans.

But then I thought about Proverbs 3:

Trust IN THE LORD with all your heart, and lean NOT on your own understanding…in all your ways, acknowledge Him and HE will direct your paths.

And there it is.

The order and the answer.

We’ve had misplaced trust. We’ve put our trust more in humans or self. And then…we’re like “ummm why is this happening to meeeee!?!” When, in truth, it was because of misplaced trust in the first place. Maybe if we’d get our trust placement in order, we’d save a heck of a lot of time going down paths that lead to hurt.

That takes listening, submitting, trusting, obeying.

In HIM. Not in self. Not in others.

Our feelings can’t always be trusted. HE can be.
