What is putting distance between God and I?

You go about your life sometimes as if I am only a tool to help you with something rather than realizing I am the carpenter. I designed everything about you. Use me… I am always here. Have I not always come to your rescue.

I want to be used by God, I want to trust that he has given me a name, and that his name for me is everything it should be. I have always struggled trusting God in everything. Often times I find myself building as many security nets around myself just in case this God thing doesn’t turn out the way that he intends it to be. I remember taking a spiritual gifts test and according to the test my greatest gift is teaching with a twenty, and the gift I lacked most was faith, which was a two. Above all else, this race is stepping out of my comfort and security, and learning to fully rely on God. I feel I have so much to gain on this race, and the little victories in my life thus far will not even hold a candle to the way I will experience God on the World Race. Still though… it’s hard to trust.
