Quotes about Trust

If I'm ever in a weird car accident, or I commit suicide or something, after the media stops celebrating my death, could they check into it? Because I'm not suicidal. And I'm a pretty good driver.

Rest is the ability to totally trust God without living under the stress of the cares of life.

Even Believers can yield to the wrong spirits. Peter once rebuked Jesus, telling Him that He would not suffer.

The will of God is God's predesigned purpose for your life. The will of God is being what you are, who you are, where you are at the time. Since the steps of a good man are ordered of the Lord (Ps. 37:23), then each part of your life is directed, even when the circumstances seem otherwise.

Job was still in God's will even when he lost his children, wealth, and health.

At times you may believe that you are at wits' end and feel that God has bypassed you for a more urgent petition or a needier person. Perhaps He has "too many children" to take care of and is "too busy for you." However, just as the examples above indicate, God prepares a good outcome before the situation arises; He is not surprised at the trouble and at your reaction to it, and He can and is planning a way of escape before you ever get into the crisis.

Spiritual rest comes through faith.

We pray to obey God, not to 'play God'. We pray, not to change God's mind, but to change our own; not to command God, but to let God command us. We pray to 'let God be God'. Prayer is our obedience to God even when it asks God for things, for God has commanded us to ask (Mt. 7:7).

We try too much and trust too little. Count the times God's Book tells us to try. Now count the times it tells us to trust.

God really performs the miracle of multiplying our time, but only if we give it to him first.

But if he had come down from the Cross, he would have made it impossible for them to believe in him, for he would have substituted sight for faith. That is why he does not take us down from our crosses: so that we do not substitute feelings and experiences for faith. He wants the very best for us, the strongest and most precious gift, and that is faith.

Our conversation with God should be utterly free and familiar, because God is the only person who will never, ever misunderstand us and never, ever reject us (hate us, ignore us, or be indifferent to us). These are the tow reasons we hid from other people, even our friends, even our parents, and the tow reasons we should never hide from God.
