A while back I had this conversation with the Lord. He was telling me to TRUST him. And I was telling him I don’t know how to do that. I told him that I hear his words but they don’t make sense. I hear him making me promises but I can’t make myself see how those promises will be made reality. I suppose it’s not really trust if you can figure out the outcome yourself, but that’s not the point.
The point is he was asking for my trust and I didn’t know how to do it. I didn’t know where to start. And then He said that it’s so much more about trusting who he is first.
So I asked how? How do I do that?? I want this to be true of me but how???
Here’s what he said.
You decide.
You make one choice after another that looks like TRUST.
You decide to say it out loud.
You decide to think it inside your brain.
You decide to walk like it’s true.
It’s the choosing that’s changing me. It’s the choosing that’s making TRUST real in my every day.
It’s the choosing that makes the next choice easier. And the next, and the next, and the next.
Until it’s not just what I choose. It’s what defines me.
It’s what makes me look like him. What makes me sound like him.
It’s what makes me live like I’m alive.
It’s me. I am the one who trusts him.
