A Rut of Trust


I often think that I have a pretty stable life...that I'm set on a good foundation. I look at my life and think, "Things are goin' awesome!" However, there's this rut of trust that I have to get out of when it comes to living my life. I can't continually trust in myself to get through! There is something far greater I have to accomplish here... something greater than myself. There is a God I have to serve that is greater than myself. There is a life I have to live that is greater than myself. There is a trust I have to show that goes beyond what I can do.

How can my life be "awesome" if I don't live it with a trust in God? "even the mountains quake before Him, and the hills melt away..." (Nahum 1:5) What about me? Am I too busy with the stuff of this life that I can't see the Creator of it. Am I so blinded by selfish desires that I can't even fall before Him who made me? Such a disappointment to find myself among the swine of my own desires. But thanks be to God who pulls me from the mire.
