I was praying about being in an <i>unfamiliar place</i>, and confessing that no matter what happens, I am trusting in the Lord.<br /><br />In the past, I would have, scrambled and tried to implement my own solution, but I've come to realize that this time I am hearing the words, "<b>trust in the Lord with your whole heart.</b>"<br /><br />I may not be in a place of familiarity, but I am in the place of faith, trust and hope; <i>the Lord is my Shepherd.</i><br /><br />Blessings and peace.<br /><br /><a href="http://mythought-filledjourney.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">MTJ</a>MTJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13694085588658653915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8628400413930011153.post-8053800647426491572011-03-26T11:19:42.869-07:002011-03-26T11:19:42.869-07:00I couldn't agree more.

Being a child of the King should make anyone feel pretty important but sadly sometimes it doesn't.

When I am down in spirit I speak out as Jesus did when he defeated the devil in His 40days in the wilderness.<br />He always said, "It is written: <br />Then one thing He said after that was, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the Father."Matthew 4:4<br /><br />So a Word of God I use is, "For God has not given me a Spirit of Fear, But of Power, Love and a sound mind." 2Timothy 1:7.<br />It is wonderful to have the power of Gods Word. <br />God Bless you dear sister and your love in sharing beatiful truths.Sr Crystal Mary Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03509227559164880311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8628400413930011153.post-47306941850389873342011-03-25T14:40:53.524-07:002011-03-25T14:40:53.524-07:00Well said, Merana.

It is...I agree with you, the real work is trusting. It is hard work and yet it is the easiest thing to do when we come to think of it. After all, we are being asked to trust the One in whom we live, move and have our being. We are asked to trust the One who created the world in which we live and the solid ground on which our feet rests. <br /><br />I wrote a post titled <a href="http://tolulopeilesanmi.blogspot.com/2011/03/please-trust-me.html" rel="nofollow">Please trust me</a>, which also speaks to the issue of trust. Our challenges usually commence when the rubber meets the road but we can conquer our fears if we are willing to trust even when "it hurts".
