"Trust Me"
A word that stands alone
a word that is said
by a God who is true
Explanations are not necessary
How, when, or where
May not be answered
but all that is said
is to be accepted with calmness and peace
with a knowledge
of His unfailing faithfulness.
For His Words are true
and will come through for you.
I've been pondering on a question for a couple of days now, and would like to throw it open to you;
Can God be trusted?
Before you answer hastily, pause, take a deep breath and think about it.
According to Webster’s online dictionary, trust is an assured reliance on the character, integrity, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something. In essence, before someone can be trusted he must be trustworthy, or in other words, deserving of trust.
Since knowledge provides a platform on which trust (or distrust) can be built, the Holy scriptures are packed full with information required to understand the true nature of God. I say 'true' nature because, over the ages many assumptions have been made about His personality. It is little wonder then, that many find it difficult trusting Him.
Hear what the scriptures say;
God is not like people. He tells no lies.
He is not like humans. He doesn’t change his mind. (GW)
Open your mouth and taste, open your eyes and see— how good God is.
Blessed are you who (run to, trust in) him.
He is not like humans. He doesn’t change his mind. (GW)
Whatever he promises, he does;
He speaks, and it is done. (GNB)
- Num 23:19
Open your mouth and taste, open your eyes and see— how good God is.
Blessed are you who (run to, trust in) him.
- Psalm 34 :8 (MSG)
The works of His hands are [absolute] truth and justice [faithful and right]; and all His decrees and precepts are sure (fixed, established, and trustworthy). They stand fast and are established forever and ever and are done in [absolute] truth and uprightness.
- Psalm 111:7-8 (AMP)
...it is impossible for God to lie…
- Heb 6:18 (NLT)
God wants you to trust Him, so take out time to study His word, and allow it to paint a masterpiece on the canvas of your heart.
My answer is Yes! God can be trusted!
