"Only Trust Him" #305

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Dictionary.com defines trust with these words:

1. reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc., of a person or thing; confidence.
2. confident expectation of something; hope.
3. confidence in the certainty of future payment for property or goods received; credit: to sell merchandise on trust.
4. a person on whom or thing on which one relies: God is my trust.
5. the condition of one to whom something has been entrusted.

Where or in whom do you trust? Obviously your number one place to find the one trustworthy enough that you place your hope, your strength, your confidence other than in God Himself. But what is your choice?

The choice is to trust God alone. Hebrews says that is done by faith. Faith itself is the assurance of the future hope. Faith is that conviction of that which you don’t even see. Otherwise it would not be faith.

What is going on in your life that God is the answer? Likely everything.

What a great time to trust and have faith in God. “When all you have left is Jesus you will find He is the only one you ever really needed.”


Blessings to you as you trust God.

Greetings from HOME in beautiful Tempe, AZ

It has been a long month. 7 surgical procedures, 5 of which meant I was anesthetized. I am still not driving. I know what it means when an OLD PERSON has their car keys taken away. Hoping to be back driving in  few days. I went to Target with Sandy the end of last week. I at least got to drive that electric cart. WOW!

Thank you for your prayers. I have managed to attend church. Thank God for wheel chairs and prayers from you. 

Every day I thank God for life. It is so special to get up every morning and discover your name is not in the obituary column. But it is greater to wake up and know that your name is in the Book of Life. Philippians 1:21 "For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain." Praise the Lord.

Thanks again for your prayer. You are a great support through your relentless prayers. May God bless you.
