Learning
to trust is one of life's most difficult tasks. Isaac Watts
Trust
of Self
How many times a day do I doubt my
abilities? I stop my negative thinking and put a positive statement in my head,
and then a short time later an unwanted negative slips in and I have to repeat
the process all over again.
Each time I face myself, I grow
stronger.
Trust
of Others
I trust some of my family and some of
my friends. If they have good things to
say about others, they will be positive about me. Those are the people I can
share with.
I have learned to teach others how to
earn my trust. If I feel hurt or betrayed by someone, we talk it over. If they
listen and respect my boundaries, we will build trust in each other.
Each time I face others, I grow stronger.
Trust
in God
Sometimes I pray in desperation
for blessings from my Father in Heaven. As time goes by, my desperation is replaced
by the faith that I had forgotten for the moment. I know God will bless me.
Proverbs 3: 5 Trust in the LORD
with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall
direct thy paths.
Each time I face God, I grow stronger.
This was a very inspiring and lovely post on trust. I really loved your thoughts on this one. The scripture Trust in the Lord is my favorite. I have used it so many times during difficult moments.
ReplyDeleteI am back blogging again and I have missed reading the blog posts. Of course, dear friend you are a favorite of mine. You have such wisdom and a talent in writing that I love.
Hope all is well and we do need to schedule a lunch date soon.
Sending love and hugs your way!
