Lean on God

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.
Eccles. 3:5‭-‬6 NIV


Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Hebrews 11:1 NIV


A lil baby sleeps gently in mother's arms, without any fear. As the baby grows a year older, her daddy plays a game with her, He asks her to jump, and the baby does, by leaping into his arms. A few years later, the child grows up and the parents take her swimming, but the child won't just jump into the pool, for the child now begins to sense the world around and over the years has absorbed fears that tell she might drown, although her parents are in the pool. We are all like that child, and God is our parent. If we try to understand the world on our own, we will never learn to swim, for when the tide is high, we may may go down. But when we lean on God, even in a storm we'll find ourselves walking on water.

I pray that you trust God our Father with all your heart, mind and soul, like Jesus did, even if it means drinking the from the cup. And may His Holy Spirit give you the courage, wisdom and understanding to deepen your faith. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
