Message for August 21 – Trusting in God
We’re all told that we should trust God. If You’ve been a Christian very long you have probably heard Proverbs 3:5 quoted, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.” That quote is pulled from a series of instructions about how we should live and what the results will be. The problem is, sometimes things don’t seem to work out that way. If anyone has ever told you that Christians are supposed to live a life free of trouble, they haven’t read their Bible very carefully.
So, what does it mean that we are to trust in the Lord. What are we trusting? What does trust mean? As my own family goes through a difficult time, these are questions I’ve been asking myself. I look forward to sharing with you what the Holy Spirit is revealing to me.
Don’t forget to come prepared for the continuation of our Sunday School lessons on how to share your faith. This week Linda will be presenting the third lesson, which helps us to deal with a “hesitant” response to the good news we have shared. If you haven’t been here, don’t worry. It’s easy material to pic up and we’ll be going over the whole thing again. I look forward to seeing you all.
