Trusting God

 Sometimes though out life, we are faced with mountains of adversity. We have problems at home, problems at work, problems with bills, problems with the car, and problems with people we know. Sometimes it can seem like the entire world can be against us, and we do not clearly see how we will make it past whatever the current obstacle is.  
We may not always see the answer, but sometimes it is because we cannot see things like He does. The solution may be just around the corner. The answer to your prayer may be just around the corner. The blessing can be just around the corner. Sometimes we get so caught up in worrying about life, that our worrying can prevent us from hearing from Him. There are other times when we see problems as being so big, that we do not understand that compared to God, they are really small. Whatever the mountain is, we have a God who is much bigger. We have a God who has promised us over and over again He would take care of us.
Philippians 4:19: 
       "God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus."
In Psalms 37:25:
         "I have been young, and now am old;
         yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
         nor his descendants begging bread"
Matthew 6:25
“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;  and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear? For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. "
The one thing all of these verses have in common is this, trust God. We believe in Him for our salvation. Believe in Him also for everything else. Lay down the worry, and the fear, and the doubt, and the struggle. Spend a moment just to consider how amazing and how big our God really is. Throughout the Old Testament God kept telling people, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." Over, and over, and over again He would tell people this. Perhaps it is because over and over again we tend to forget it. God sent His own son to die for our sins to prove how much He really loves us. 
Don't worry. Just trust Him. If you don't know the answer, that does not mean He does not either. It means that there are times, when things are beyond our control and we have the choice to either worry about them, or to just lay those things at His feet and say, "Here, I can't do it, I need help, I trust You". 
God will provide. God will provide. God will provide. Not just some of our needs, but all of our needs. God will provide. Trust that He is who He says He is. Trust that He will do what He said He will do. Take a moment and just think about Him. Not necessarily on what He can do for us at the moment, but think about who He really is. Understand that He bigger than anything. Understand that He loves us more than anything. Understand that He sees and knows everything. Understand that regardless of where you are, He is there too. 
When Peter was walking on the water to Jesus in Matthew 14:22, his eyes were not on the waves, or the water. He was not thinking about the fact that people don't walk on water. It was that faith believing that when Jesus said "Come", that was all that mattered. It wasn't until Peter started looking at his circumstance that he started to sink. Why? It was because Peter took His eyes off of Jesus and let his problem become bigger than the person in whom his faith was in. Yet even then, when he cried out to Jesus, Jesus reached down and grabbed his hand. 
Just like then, Jesus will not allow us to sink if we will just trust in Him. So today, trust in Him and dare to believe that God can and will do everything He said.
One last verse, Ephesians 3:20:
"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen."
