But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord; I say, “You are my God.” Psalm 31:14 NKJV
I love teaching. It’s not just because I love imparting knowledge, but teaching gives me new insights and revelation. Many times, I get my ‘ah-ah’ light bulb moments during teaching.
Recently, I was teaching a
leadership masterclass on trust, the discussions gave me new perspective on how
important and fragile trust is in relationships.
Trust manifests a lot in
our society; between a child and parent, between spouses, in friendships and
relationships. In addition to love, trust is the unseen cord that binds people
together. Where there is no trust there is distrust and all its negative
consequences.
Trust can be built up over
years, through experiences and faithful services. But it takes a spilt second
of action for these to be destroyed.
The bible highlights a lot
of promises for those who trust Elohim God and trust in Him. The holy
scriptures give us many examples of ancients who lived their lives in trust of
their Elohim God. We are always encouraged to trust in Him.
One of the challenges in
our spiritual journey is how do you trust an invisible God? What has helped my
own spiritual journey at the beginning was the fact that He created the world,
and Elohim’s relationship with people of antiquity and great things He did for
them. They trusted Him, and their lives were transformed. I want more of that
please.
As I started ‘seeing’ God’s
work in transforming my life, I began to accumulate ‘trust savings’ - reasons
why I should and can trust Elohim God. I was now able to talk from a place of
experiential knowledge not just stories of people past.
But
above all, the biggest reason to trust Him is the fact that He is God, the
creator of the world and everything in it. At the end of the day you are His
created being, your creator has your back.

Almighty Father, thank You
for the gift of life, health and my salvation. Give me a heart to trust in You
all the days of my life. In the name of Yeshua I pray. Amen.
I pray that this inspires
you to reflect on your relationship with Elohim and be determined to be more
and do more for Him each day.
