Trusting in the Lord

Trusting in the Lord

Abraham followed

God's leading without knowing

where it would take him.

Hannah waited

for God's perfect timing

without knowing when.

Mary expected

a miracle

without knowing how.

Joseph trusted

God's purpose

without knowing why

circumstances happened

the way they did.

"Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He's the one who will keep you on track." Proverbs 3:5-6, The Message

(The above is taken from text which was from the book "The Purpose Driven Life", which was on a card Ken and I were given almost a year ago. We have it hanging in our room, and until recently I had forgotten who I was, that God will fulfill His promises in our life, and He has a purpose and plan for everything. Sometimes it really takes a "spiritual 2x4" upside my head! I've come to realize that we are in the midst of spiritual warfare....and let's just say I've picked my sword back up!)
