Trust

Tomorrow we will submit our very last pieces of paperwork. We have been given a June 1st deadline and CK would like us verified by then. After that, it is in God's hands.

Today at church we had some guests from Frontline Worship. Their message today: trusting in faith that God's word He spoke to us will come to pass. The most important thing I took away was this. If the creator of the universe whispered a word in my ear, what am I worried about? If the Creator spoke clear words to me about my family, my health, my work, why am I so preoccupied with the details? Because, as men and women, we feel the need to meddle in God's work to make it better. If I am not mistaken, He created the world with no man's help. He created every single fiber of it. Man has put his mark on the world, and well, we can look around and see what man did in comparison and see if our meddling really helped. If He is capable of creation, I am sure He is capable of working out the details of the path set before me. He does not need me to figure out how His word will come to life, but to focus on Him and He will get me there. It is so easy for us to rely on our own creativity to figure out our problems, because for us to have a Lord who knows all and wants to give to us beyond our wildest dreams just seems too risky and therefore, we sometimes miss out on the sunrise while searching for a light switch.

Today, I will trust Him, no matter how much it hurts or I don't understand. He is in control.
