Trust in the Lord
“Trust in the Lord
with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Pvbs. 3:5
Upon becoming a Christian I thought my life would be trouble
free. It didn’t take long to find out
differently! After a few years of
walking with the Lord, I was faced with a crisis that threw me off course and
challenged my faith. My weaknesses
quickly rose to the surface. I was
leaning left and leaning right; I was leaning on my own understanding and
struggling to lean on God’s.
I went off track because of life’s events and because I
focused on the problem rather than my Savior.
I forgot to trust in Him with all my heart. I had a choice to make: get back on track with what I focused on; or
stay in the downward spiral. I decided
to get back on track by following Jesus and trusting in Him – even thought
things looked bleak.
Wrapped in the loving arms of a forgiving Savior, I found
that safe place once again. It was Jesus
who picked me up, dusted me off, and led me back to that path of His
righteousness. He carried me when I
couldn’t walk and when I wouldn’t walk.
He cleared a path for me when I saw was a forest. He didn’t leave me. He loved me.
Thank You Jesus, for Your grace beyond measure and Your
glory beyond description.
