Trust Me

May 7 - Jesus Calling, by Sarah Young

     IF YOU LEARN TO TRUST ME-really trust Me-with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from My Peace. Everything you endure can be put to use by allowing it to train you in trusting Me. This is how you foil the works of evil, growing in grace through the very adversity that was meant to harm you.
     Do not fear what this day, or any day, may bring your way. Concentrate on trusting Me and on doing what needs to be done. Relax in My sovereignty, remembering that I go before you, as well as with you, into each day. Fear no evil, for I can bring good out of every situation you will ever encounter.

Thank You, Jesus, for this Truth, this Promise, that comes from You, because it is so easy to let fear get in the way of Your Promise to me.

When I choose to look away from my circumstances and  my perspective, and look to You, asking You to give me a glimpse of what you see, that's when I see the amazing grace, truth, and work that you are doing in my life, despite my circumstances.

Is it easy? Not even close, it's hard work, God work.

Easy is giving in to this pit in my stomach that doesn't want to go away, and wallow in self-pity, and frustration, and hurt. Easy is wanting to blame instead of praying out of deep compassion that chains would be broken and great healing will come. Please, Lord Jesus, hear my prayer. The enemy wants to destroy, but You, Lord, are bigger and will bring good out of every situation. We only have to ask. Just ask. Easy. Ask and believe. His will be done.
