Trust Him!

Men are the worst kind when it comes to trust and confidence in others. Wrong! Once again, men are in general too loose in their lives, always trusting others and placing great confidence in others. I was such a man. I was in a partnership in business with another man. I had bought into the company, fifty percent shareholder and partnership. I trusted him and placed my confidence in him because he had been running the company for some time already. I did learn the ropes quickly, getting very involved, and making big money. Then it all fell apart in the beginning of 2011. My wife and I lost just about everything we had.

Fortunately, through much prayer and calling out to God, He picked me up and my new journey started; becoming a business man with Him as my only partner, and the business is still running today, not always easy, but blessed by my mighty God. Somewhere along my journey I had forgotten to rather trust God and went it alone with my own manhood at stake. We men tend to do that quite often. God brought me back to reality, and today I’m grateful for His intervention in my life. This verse comes to mind; “Trust in the Lord and do good. Dwell in the land and feed on His faithfulness.” This is found in Psalm 37:3… Our hope should always be in God. We should trust Him and place our total confidence in Him alone. He is the only living God whom we can trust.

We can’t trust cows, or the moon and stars, never mind others around us. We are all mortals and humans and only He is God. He should be the One in whom we should place our complete trust and confidence in. As we live our daily lives, let’s feed on His faithfulness. Let us expect, let us anticipate and let us see His faithfulness. Without Him we are nothing. Without Him we are “living dead” and going nowhere. Are you off course right now? Are you seeking trust and confidence in those around you, maybe a mentor and friend? It’s time to turn around and face God. It’s time for you and I to feed on His faithfulness. Enjoy your new journey!
