Daily verse: Proverbs 3:26
"For the Lord will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being caught."
Where do I place my trust? At crossroads of my life, I have to ask that question. To trust God or to trust myself. It seem so easy to say that to trust the all wise Almighty is the obvious. But in reality, I struggled. Can I put down the financial security of my present job and take up missions work? What about my children education? Are the water there clean?
Or at the work place, do I speak the truth and take the risk of being persecuted? Can i trust God that He will protect and deliver when I obey Him? When confronted with real issues, it is not easy to trust. But trusting Him is a learning journey. Learn to trust Him in small things and it will be easier to trust Him in bigger areas. The problem is the tendency to trust ourselves to solve problems or made decision. Still, continue to work on. That's discipleship.
Lord, teach me to trust, even if it is difficult. Amen.
