Sometimes I have to remember exactly what it means to trust.

I not only forget what trust really means, I forget what my part I play in a trusting relationship with God.

Trust is a verb. It’s an action. It means to place a firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.

Think on that.

Trust is firm.
Trust is a firm belief, a conviction.
Trust is a firm belief, a conviction, in God’s reliability, his quality of being dependable.
Trust is the conviction in God’s reliability, his quality of being dependable, His truth, what He says is fact and is real.
Trust is the conviction in God’s reliability, in His words being fact and real, and in His ability, His possession of the means to do something.
Trust is the conviction in God’s reliability, in His truth, in Him possessing the means to do something, and in His strength, the ability to withstand great pressure or the power to move something heavy.
Trust is the conviction in God’s reliability, truth, ability, and strength.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT) says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. See His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take.

Trust that He speaks the truth and has the ability.

Isaiah 40:31 (NLT) says, “But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.”

Hold to the conviction that God possesses the power to move what is heavy in your life and that He will withstand the great pressure for you. He will give you the ability to get through it.

Isaiah 41:10 (NLT) Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.

Cling to the conviction in God’s reliability, truth, ability, and strength.

God is the One Who makes me to be strong.
God is the One Who makes me to soar.
God is the One Who makes me to run.
God is the One Who makes me to walk.
God is the One Who gives me courage.
God is the One Who helps me.
God is the One Who who makes me victorious.
God is the One Who shows me the path.

I seek Him in all I do.
I trust Him with all my heart.

God’s hands are on the circumstance.
My eyes are on God.

Trust mean removing my eyes from what’s before me and placing them on God, and God only, resting assured He’s got me.
