Sometimes it is so difficult to see. Time after time, I have read and heard that if you just put your trust in God, He will be faithful and provide everything you need and will give you your heart's desires. Yes, I have found this to be true, but why does it have to be so difficult to understand sometimes? Many times, spontaneous events occur and I want to have control of the situation, but once I take matters into my own hands, nothing ever happens the way it should. This is because God wants to have full control of my entire life. He does not need my help. Last night, I was reading Boy Meets Girl by Joshua Harris when I read something that caught my attention. Listen...
"Walking by faith isn't our idea of fun. We want the discomfort and risk removed. Before we make a move we want God to make the situation crystal clear. Do you see the problem? Our mind-set is: 'God tell me who, tell me how, tell me when - and then I'll trust you.' What God wants us to see is that if He did this, our trust wouldn't be real. We want a definitive answer so we won't feel vulnerable, weak, and dependent on Him. But guess what? We are vulnerable, weak and dependent on Him. And it's only when we realize our true condition that God can demonstrate his strength and love on our behalf."
