"GOD" THINKING
Throughout life, we face hard and easy decisions. When we cry, pace the floor etc. we have a hard time knowing God is still in control of our lives. We can do things to try to help our lives along especially if we are disgruntled. We can hole up in a corner, lock ourselves away from the world, run away, avoid the issue etc. etc. etc. but it all comes down to trust. Think "God" and "trust" and put them together--"God thinking"!
Do we trust our Heavenly Father who knows what is best for us? Do we understand fully how wonderful, awesome and marvelous He really is? The ultimate decision is ours. We can choose to serve and love Him or turn away. In those uncertain times, it is easy to become bitter, angry or feel unloved and dwell on self-pity but we need to shake ourselves and wake up and realize God is the one in control! Make a conscious effort to think positively.
The more we dwell on NOT improving our situation to the best of our ability, the more depressed we will feel so put into practice "God thinking" whenever possible. Don't lament and stew and get caught up in negativity, but give thanks to God anyhow.
Trust is given and also earned. In some situations, you may trust someone and then they give you a reason not to trust them and you start all over again rebuilding trust one day at a time. In other situations, you trust eternally, forever, believe them, stand by them and choose the best. When you place your trust, it isn't something to be taken lightly. Put into practice "God thinking" each day and you will see wonderful results!
God doesn't want anything less---He wants our trust in life, financial areas of our lives, raising our families, everything you can think of. If you trust with your heart, you will do the right thing and place your trust in God because He will NEVER fail you! Even in the lowest valleys--He never fails!
Do you choose to believe and trust? Do it today, God is waiting for you!
Love, Cathy
