Do I?

Do I trust God?  Do I?  Or, do I just say I do?  Is it something my brain and heart just say because that is what I should say, or do I trust Him?  When I read His Word do I believe it is Truth or do I just say that it is?

Yes, I do trust God and yes, I really do believe His Word is truth, however, as I say those words, do I live that way?  Do I walk through the day with a heart that is peaceful because I truly do believe I am here for His purposes?

The journey can be so confusing and I tend to focus on me and my happiness instead of God and His purpose.  God makes it pretty clear to me on His purpose for me...for us.  He says this.... “and this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.” 1 John 3:28.”  And again, Jesus said this...... …Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”  Matthew 28: 18-20

Yes, I trust and yes, I believe His Word is truth and as the father of the sick child proclaimed in Matthew 9:24 - “yes I believe; help my unbelief.”
