Trust

THE KEY TO LEARNING AND KNOWING THAT WE CAN TRUST GOD IS TO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS A SPIRIT WITHIN US THAT IS CONNECTED TO GOD.

- IYANLA VANZANT

Trust is a topic I’m often interested in learning more about. Being a couple therapist has expanded my understanding of trust. For me, trust includes safety and reliability. It is a sense of security. Trusting myself feels like an inner knowing. An inner knowing where I’m not second guessing myself but sticking to what I know. The less fear I feel, the more I trust my self + life. The sole way I’ve been able to experience less fear in my life is by giving my battles to God. I trust that He’ll protect me, fight my battles and situate me in circumstances that serve me because He knows me best. He created me. He knows the number of hairs on my head. He’ll never abandon me. If a situation is uncomfortable, I fully trust that God is teaching me. My character grows in discomfort. I’m obedient to Him in the good + bad because He’s the shot caller of my life. My spirit is connected to the same power who created the heavens and universe. This is how I’m able to trust Him. My belief in God allows me to give my worries to Him + cast my cares upon Him. Since my spirit is connected to Him, we are tight. He’s never separated from me + I from Him. He carries my burdens. I still have battles but I don’t need to fight them all. This is my source of trust and security.
