When you adopt a child, it takes time for that child to fully trust in you, and to feel safe with you. As chosen children of God, we can be the same way. We hear the words "trust in God," but it can take time for us to grow spiritually and truly put our trust in Him. And even when we have lived many years trusting in the Lord, circumstances can shake our faith and make us doubt. It's human nature! But as we continue to grow in Christ and follow Him, it's important for us to stay focused on the truth of His Word- He IS a trustworthy father. His love never fails us. Whatever might be threatening your peace today, keep your eyes on the One who has it all in His control, and trust in Him.
“But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”- Jeremiah 17:7-8
