Trust God with all your heart and lean not to your understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
I have learned something by focusing on “trust” this year. Earlier this month, my husband told me he was going to do something that he was not going to change because of how he felt about an issue that could affect the way a lot of us will have to live. I did not agree with what he said but I knew it would not do me any good to bring up the fallacy of his thinking. By almost the end of this month, he changed his mind about what he proposed not to do.
All I could do was give thanks to God for letting me not say my piece and allowing God to work on this issue.
At one time, I would have tried to stand my ground. That only would cause more issues between us, God took care of the issue that Hubby had. I can only say that this was proof to me that we CAN trust God with things that we don’t understand or don’t like. Believers CAN wait on God to work things out to His plan.
I am thankful to God for this great lesson He taught me.
What a fantastic lesson you learned here, Cecelia. Praying, and trusting in God to act without our interference, is the essence of trust. Happy Advent!
