Trust.....(getting honest again for a moment)

It's me again:-) Forgive me for a blog or bust kind of night. Too much on my mind and I'm typing....

God and I are having that lovely conversation again about trust. Some days it is two steps forward, three steps back, but I am so thankful He is so patient. He understands my heart, He understands my needs, and yes He even understands my wants. He understands my frustrations and the fact that I feel like I fail Him daily. Bless His heart I know He must get tired of me coming to Him going, God it's me again. Yet He doesn't. He never tires of hearing me ask Him for something because He knows my heart. He knows my heart better than I do and for that I will forever be grateful.

He knows why I do what I do even when I can't see it clearly. We all have days when our flesh gets in the way. Days when we get frustrated with the way things are going, days when we just can't make sense of how the pieces of the day are falling into place, days when we just want to know that our hours, our stress, our frustrations have been worth it.

We all want to know that we do matters to someone. We all want to know that we make a difference, that the world is better because we bloomed where He called us to bloom. The trust part comes in when we have to keep going and not knowing whether or not a difference is there. The trust part happens when we can't see the indention of Him, but we know He's there. The trust comes when the frustrations keep snowballing, but you know God has a plan and He has this.

Lord help me to trust You even when I can't feel my way through. Help me to always remember that You have this and there is peace from knowing that. God give me Your strength to bloom where I'm planted regardless of what others may think, say, or do. It's not about them, it is all about You.  ~Amen

Sometimes we have to just keep taking it one step at a time, knowing that He is leading each step of the way. The enemy wants us to get discouraged, but God has a plan for encouragement and He has a plan. He just wants us to trust and know that His timing is much better than ours. Be His and He will let the rest fall into place.

Until next time
