We sang a song at our fellowship recently which had the following words,
'We will put our trust in the Lord' this was repeated.these words our so easily sung,or spoken.But it is one the greatest challenges we have to rise
to,continually.I remember reading the life story of Hudson Taylor,a man who founded the China Inland Mission.Before he went to China he trained to be a doctor,one day as he was assisting in examining a dead body,he got infected ,and he was advised to go home,put his affairs in order,for he was going to die.Hudson believed God had called him to go to China,so he trusted God to live,which of course he did,and he went on to serve God in the land of China.Here is something he said,'Want of trust,is at the root of almost all our sins and all our weaknesses'.Why is it when a problem arises
I hear God saying to me,'Trust me'?,because our relationship is built on trust.Life is a challenge,it throws many things at us,the list is endless,but whatever you are facing today,the way through it,is to simply trust in the Lord with all your heart,and to lean not upon your own understanding[Proverbs 3 v 5].
A prayer.
Dear Lord grant unto us the grace of simple trusting you,no matter what comes into our lives. Amen.
