TRUST

Hi,

This past week has been challenging. Challenging because trust is an issue for me. Trusting God is even harder for me. He's this all powerful all mighty God that I can't see and that sometimes I can't hear. I often thought to myself this week...how am I to trust a God that I can't see or hear?

The reason I'm sharing this with you is because, giving all my stress and worry over to God and trusting him that he will provide with funds for my missions is CHALLENGING. So, I ask all of you to be praying for me. Praying that the Lord will provide and that I will be able to fully trust the Lord on this situation. Throughout this week I was also afraid to come to the Lord about money thinking that's a selfish thing. Then I realized this is MISSIONS... this is for my God! I should't be afraid to talk to Him, I should be excited and overjoyed to talk to Him. When I was praying tonight I was also afraid He was going to be upset that I hadn't talked to Him about trust. That I hadn't really been honest with the Lord on how I was feeling. I didn't want God to be upset with me that I put talking to my parents about worry and stress first before coming to God. I really prayed with God tonight, and for the first time in a while I could truly feel God with me.   He was right beside me comforting and calming me of all my stress and worry. God is so good. Another cool thing is I found this verse below that made me feel relieved.

 "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
