Quotes about Trust

The challenge continually before you is to trust Me and search for My way through each day.

It is not so much adverse events that make you anxious as it is your thoughts about those events. Your mind engages in efforts to take control of a situation, to bring about the result you desire. Your thoughts close in on the problem like ravenous wolves. Determined to make things go your way, you forget that I am in charge of your life. The only remedy is to switch your focus from the problem to My Presence. Stop all your striving, and watch to see what I will do. I am the Lord!

You will guide me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. —Psalm 73:24 NKJV

The ultimate challenge is to keep fixing your eyes on Me, no matter what is going on around you.

My eyes are especially on those who are putting their hope in Me. This does not mean I shield them from all adversity; it means I bless them with My nearness in good times, in hard times—at all times. The eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. —PSALM 33:18 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and

Much, much stress results from your wanting to make things happen before their times have come. One of the main ways I assert My sovereignty is in the timing of events. If you want to stay close to Me and do things My way, ask Me to show you the path forward moment by moment. Instead of dashing headlong toward your goal, let Me set the pace. Slow down, and enjoy the journey in My Presence.

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in Him!
