New Trust 2
Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O LORD, have never abandoned anyone who searches for you. Psalm 9:10 NLT
Yesterday this series began on the word �trust� as it occurs in the Bible; the point made that we must choose to trust in the God of the Bible. As a minister, I meet so many people who struggle with life and cannot find a place to turn for answers. I know, through the Bible and experience that Christ is sufficient for all their needs, that He alone holds all the answers to the problems of life, and that, by faith, they need to trust in Christ alone. I watch many times, however, as people choose other methods to try and solve their dilemmas. Of course, this is always a dead-end path and the person continues to struggle.
I will not to pretend to know all the reasons why one person chooses and another rejects the truth of the Bible, but I do know this. The more a person knows about God, the more that person will understand and actually like the person of God. God is very likeable. (Please, I mean no irreverence or disrespect in that statement.) God will stand the test of time in being faithful. His love truly does endure forever. God loves the unlovable. He gives mercy and grace to sinners. He mends broken hearts. If you and I will ever take the time to get to know the God who created the universe, we will love Him more and more.
Have you been trusting God lately? If not, maybe it is not as much of a trust problem as it is a knowledge problem. Perhaps you should get to know God better, and then you will love and trust Him more.
