Day 30 - Do We Trust Him?

Proverbs 3:5 - 3:6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.[a]

Abraham didn’t just suddenly become willing to sacrifice his only son in obedience to God. The story we read yesterday comes after many stories of his failure to trust God. Hagar and Ishmael are prime examples!

Abraham had received a promise from God to be the father of many nations, but he struggled to trust God to provide a son. Surrendering to God always begins with trust.

Do we trust that God is good? Do we trust that He has plans to prosper us and not to harm us? Do we trust that He is working even when we can’t see it?

What is an area of your life that you are holding back from God? Ask Him to help you to trust Him fully.
