TRUST AND OBEY

One of the greatest needs as a Christian is that of trusting the God that we claim to place our faith in. The old hymn says, "Trust and obey for there is no better way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey." As promising as that is and as much as I understand it, I have found that I struggle at times to trust and then obey. I want to, I need to, but I sometime neglect to. So as I look into the future I want to embrace the emotions that God has given me and submit them to the Lord in obedience to Him. I want to live fully for God and make sure others know about it. I want to give Jesus all of me, not just what I am comfortable with. I want to depend on the faith that I claim I have. And in that process maybe God will be glorified through my life.
