Who Can You Trust?

The last few days I have been thinking about exactly who I can put my trust into. Through the years we have all had people that we have trusted and they have let us down, then there have been some from the past that we still trust to this day.

So much of life is focused on trust. As children we trust our parents to raise us right and that every thing they are teaching us is right, none of it being lies. We get into school and we trust our teachers are giving us the best education they can provide. We fall in love and trust the person we are in love with but what happens when that trust is broken in any situation, at any age? Each time trust is broken, we put up a wall. Throughout our lives many walls can be put up but we have to be willing to let down those walls to let God in.

Sadly, trust is broken sometimes during our life time but that does not mean that we should give up on everything or everyone and be lurking over our shoulders that everyone we know is going to hurt us. At the same time we ought to be cautious of who we give our trust to.
While it is a scary thing to give the world your trust, giving it over to God should be easy but more than half the time, we make it overly hard.

-Psalm 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.

The world is selfish, deceitful and most of the time faithless. So while we can put as much trust in the world as we want to, it can fail. God can not fail!
This does not mean do not trust your spouse but in everything you do trust in the LORD your God. In every decision you make, in every situation, (Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; Proverbs 3:5)

Our decisions made without talking to God first will always most likely fail; always remember to trust in Him with every inch of your life and to continually pray.  

Thank you for taking the time to read! May you have a wonderful, blessed day!
