Day 9: Imperfect Trust


TRUST is a funny thing

as it is great when you are TRUSTING,

but what about when you are

UN~TRUSTING?

Think about it.

UN~ TRUST

is

FEAR & DOUBT

because

UN~TRUST

is

FORGETTING GOD'S PROMISES.

But what if we could

BELIEVE PERFECTLY all of GOD'S PROMISES

especially when

UN~TRUST comes knocking at our door.

What if we became like the father who was with JESUS

and actually had the BOLDNESS to tell JESUS what he was feeling

when he cried out with tears~

“LORD, I believe; help my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24).

Now that is TRUST.

For who would ask someone who they didn't TRUST to help them?

Hmm.

Think about it. Really think about it.

Think about the something in your life where you are struggling

to TRUST GOD.

Is it the unknowns of the future?

Is it letting go of something in the past?

Is it right now being stuck in the present with yourself?

But there HE is.

Just like JESUS was when the father took the courage to tell

JESUS about his UN~TRUST TRUST.

Did JESUS laugh at him?

Did JESUS condemn him?

Oh no, as instead

HE healed his son

because that is not who JESUS is.

But don't we treat JESUS as one who will laugh or condemn us

when we

UN~TRUST

with FEAR to really be vulnerable before HIM~

UN~ASHAMED!

If GOD can clothe HIS first creations with a fig leave

just think what JESUS can do with a CROSS.

Oh wavering IMPERFECT FAITH,

because FAITH can't see what JESUS can see,

so why not just

TRUST JESUS with all your UN~TRUST.

Therefore,

tell HIM.

JESUS, I BELIEVE but help me overcome my UNBELIEF about ____________!

Oh taste the FREEDOM of TRUST~

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge HIM, And HE shall direct your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6).

From UN~TRUST to TRUST~

"BELIEVE FOR IT" (listen to the song below)
