The beauty of Lake Michigan always draws me in, it is a place I love to pray. As I pondered what my word for this new year would be the word trust came to my heart and mind. God is most trustworthy and that is exactly why I am trusting Him with my entire life, not just this year but every year to come. The peace that comes from fully trusting in God is surreal. A sliver of His mighty power is reveal when the words “I got this” come from the death defeating spirt. The warm relief that flows from that is the unconditional love God has for His children. I trust you Father with every beautiful day and every very difficult day, knowing my life is forever in your hands as I pursue the plan you place on my life and encouraging others to do the same. The definition of the word trust is “firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.” Trust in God is having a firm faith. I have firm faith that Jesus has overcome the world and because of Him I have a never-ending Father-Daughter relationship with God. The trust God has placed on my heart is visible, it is Him giving me peace in every aspect of life as I follow Him and His love everyday. After choosing my word for the year I like to add a verse to go with it. The verse I am holding onto with much awareness this year is Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Thank you Father for placing this word on my heart, for welcoming me into this new year with more love and peace as I trust you fully and enjoy the walk with you.
