You're right, Rachel, it's a matter of trust. And I find mine isn't what it should be. I tend to trust the tangible, but God keeps working on me to trust Him above all. Thank you for taking time to share your heart.Michele Hueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06537552443463518621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8414484690953810814.post-66558779802704214782014-07-17T01:12:59.629-04:002014-07-17T01:12:59.629-04:00God had my full attention when I read the passage ...God had my full attention when I read the passage from James at the beginning of this post. These two verses have been coming up again and again over the past two weeks: "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds..." <br /><br />I have faced some painful trials since then and I keep remembering this passage. It comes down to trust. Do I trust that God is good no matter what happens? Do I love Him more than anything? Will I believe like Abraham did? Trust and obey.Rachel Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10276087779893537980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8414484690953810814.post-60643293181814021532014-07-08T11:29:59.396-04:002014-07-08T11:29:59.396-04:00I love that verse, too, Karen.

(Psalm 36:5) I need to remind myself of that often, especially when I've failed Him!Michele Hueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06537552443463518621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8414484690953810814.post-12872538713668141082014-07-07T14:23:50.203-04:002014-07-07T14:23:50.203-04:00I love the bible verse that reminds us that we lov...I love the bible verse that reminds us that we love God because He first loved us. Pretty humbling to realize that even when it comes to love, we are not in charge. The Lord cares for us whether or not we pray, submit, or obey. What a God we serve. Makes me WANT to pray, submit, and obey.Karen O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14964174719988435472noreply@blogger.com
