Can I really trust God?

Dr. Chuck Betters

MARK INC Ministries

Answer:   “The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His being, sustaining all things by His powerful Word….” Hebrews 1:3a

In other words, Jesus sustains the universe with one word; can He not also sustain you? God is sovereign and you can trust Him.

Throughout the rest of the book, the writer reminds his readers that God has already kept His promise of redemption by sending His Son, Jesus. We can trust Him to keep all of His promises, just as He said.

And in this messy world, when we want to quit our journey of faith, to give up because the heat of life is scorching our souls, like these broken believers, we need to revisit our worldview, the grid through which we view all of life. And the place to start is simple:

God is sovereign. You can trust Him. Will you?

Trust has a much deeper meaning than what most of us attribute to it.
A lot of christians say they trust God to take care of them, but do we really mean it? How we handle life challenges is the real proof of our trust in God. A christian that believes beyond reasonable doubt that God will come through for him no matter what challenge comes his way is blessed beyond measure because God indeen can be trusted.

I know that no matter what is happening in my life, I can trust the Lord to guide me and protect me. I am leaning on Him today as I face yet another setback. I know that it isn't about me it is about Jesus. I will continue to wait patienty on the Lord for His perfect timing. I can not imagine living my life without my Abba Father and my Lord Jesus Christ.

When I read for myself the scripture quoted, Hebrews 1:3,4, I felt a 'tingle' in my very Spirit! I pray that my friends that dont believe in God and how God is so mighty! When life gets to me, I've learnt to let God be God. I've come this far not to turn back... I just put more into Him that is Faithful and True... I am soooo in love with Jesus, I cant do anything without consulting Him.

I am elated that God is in my life and I am His child.
