Welcome to Day 12 of Chase THE Light Project: I Can Trust
Today’s verse comes from Proverbs 3:5. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart;
do not depend on your own understanding.”
do not depend on your own understanding.”
It’s after breakfast that she sits
at the piano and begins to play. She plays a song that I taught her and if I
close my eyes I can see myself as a child playing this same song. She has
gotten so good at this song that she could play it with her eyes closed.
Knowing where each finger goes. Knowing each note that comes next. What she
once struggled with or messed up on the melody…she now knows like the back of
her hand. Practice…this is what it does. It makes us better and more
comfortable with whatever we are practicing on.
This is how I want to feel with God.
I want to know that I know it’s Him speaking to me. I want to pause before I
leap when anger mounts. To practice walking with Him requires being present in
His presence. It requires me to let go of control and see the world through
Kingdom Eyes.
“We
cannot trust who we do not know.” ~Wendy Blight
“Do not depend on your own understanding”…and if I don’t
know Jesus – how do I know the difference?
It can be tricky but to trust in Jesus I need to know Him. And to get to know Him…I need to spend time
with Him.
Today, let’s practice getting to know Him more so that we
can trust Him with everything. Because in order to shine the light we need to
know The Light.
