Scripture of the Day: Seriously, Do You Trust God?
Psalm 62:8 Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. Selah
When we’ve been hurt one too many times by people, we tend to close ourselves off from the world. We tend create this wall around us, not forming new relationships, and becoming antisocial in the efforts to protect our feelings.
This is not God’s plan for our lives because we are basing our decisions on fear not faith.
God’s desire is that we trust Him with every part of our lives including, our feelings.
When we truly trust God, we trust God to decide who we should allow in our lives, we trust God to give us discernment on the mindset of the people God allows in our lives, and we trust God to tell us how long these people should be in our lives.
We also trust God to completely remove the emotional pain caused by people who hurt us in our past.
God knows who we need and don’t need in our lives. We sometimes believe we can do a better job than God with protecting our feelings but, He promised to be our protector (Psalm 27:1). We should listen and heed the wisdom of God regarding even the most fragile parts of being.
