{day 11} :: God is Faithful. Trust Him.

It's been difficult to get started on this one today. Not because I'm running out of words or anything. Rather because there is so much to be said. So much I want to make sure you understand. While I'd love nothing more than to come up with some profound thought here, all I can say is this: God is faithful. Trust Him.


If I started writing examples of all the times He's been faithful to me and my family, I'd never finish this post. Suffice it to say He's provided means to pay bills and ways to take simple vacations and houses and jobs and life when death seemed certain. In times when we had no idea what to do or what was going to happen, He's shown us Himself in ways big and small.



But lest you think life has been easy, lest you think I believe He's faithful only because it seems He's given us everything, let me assure you that's not been the case. I have faced death, cancer, loneliness, purposelessness, invisibility and times when it's been a struggle to believe He is good.


Still, through it all He has been steadfast and sure. His Words have been true. He has never failed. Even when His provision and His promise didn't look like I thought it should, He has been worth believing.


It's as true for you as it is for me. So today, whether things are bright or all looks bleak, let reminder you that God is faithful. Trust Him.

Amen! That's pretty much what He's telling us every day, isn't it? I wish I would listen more. :)
