Trust In the Lord

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,

and lean not on your own understandings

in all your ways

acknowledge Him 

and He will direct your paths. 

Do not be wise in your own eyes

fear the Lord and shun evil

this will bring healing to your body

and nourishment to  your bones.

Proverbs 3:5-7

Do I really need to write anything more? I mean that pretty much sums it up right? right.

Is submitting to the Lord and trusting Him the same thing? I don't know. I really don't know... but I think trusting Him is the end part of submitting. Cause submitting is like giving up my will to follow yours. Trusting is more like I'm putting my life in you're hands or I'm standing beside you, believing that you will protect me.  So no, they aren't the same thing.

I've this idea that I can control things with my brain, so I fret and worry over the little stuff thinking i'm going to fix it by worrying about it. Or a least change people's minds with my mind. But I've been learning that when I fret or worry about situations I'm not trusting God to provide everything that I need. Trusting God in all things is 100% easier then actually doing.

It is hard to trust God that He know's better then me how to run my life, but I think that's okay cause it teaches me to keep running back to God so that we can grow closer together. The deeper in relationship you have with Jesus the more you're going to be trusting Him and give Him you're life.
