About this Blog...

This blog is meant to be a testimony to God's Faithfulness & His Glory.
In Old Testament times, God's people would build altars & monuments that would serve as a reminder of all that God did for His people. Today, we have the same opportunity to pay tribute to God's lavish blessing over our lives. This blog is a modern-day version of the Old Testament monument. May all who visit here and read the things written be inspired to be grateful for the blessings in their own lives and find reason to ascribe glory & honor to Almighty God --- for His unfailing love, infinite mercy & amazing grace!

It's all about trusting God

I am in a place of immense gratitude this morning.  Thankful that God strengthens me and surrounds me with His love when I choose to trust Him rather than lean on my own feeble abilities.

Trusting God for THIS moment.  Then the next.....and the next....etc.  That is all I have to do.  Take it one piece, one step, one moment at a time to get through the trials I encounter.  It seems simple enough.  

Then why do I try to conjure up clever methods and strategies to get through life's difficulties?  

I have all the means necessary to overcome and be victorious ~ through Jesus.  He purchased my freedom with a very high price:  Himself.  He will faithfully uphold me in the midst of the trials of life if I will simply trust Him.  He will keep me standing firm, even when I lack the physical strength to stand at all.  Praise HIM!!!

"Trust God from the bottom of your heart;  don't try to figure out everything on your own." ~ Proverbs 3:5  msg

"...the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in Him." ~ Psalm 32:10
