Faith & Trust: A Bible Devotional
Read Proverbs 3: 5-6
Remember this verse and try to follow it,
"Trust in the Lord, our God, with all your heart and lean not onto your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight"
Now, what Solomon is saying, is that if you believe in the Lord and Jesus Christ, and you will trust them for all your days, you will have a good life and go to heaven someday.
Now right now, think about your relationship with the Lord, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Now think of the cross. Do you know what? Think, of each board on the cross. Their is only 2 right? Well think of the cross as your relationship with God. You're one board. And God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are the other board. And, if your relationship with them broke, so would the cross. Because, you can't be alone as just one board. without another board, your life won't go on as well as if you were a cross. You can't spell us, comparing to your relationship with God, without U! And don't think I pulled all this out of my head! Okay, a little bit. But, it mostly came from my Preacher at church, who said, "Think of the cross as your relationship with God." I do think that's what the cross means.
Songs would go great with this. Like, a song about Cartoon's singing praise by Chris Rice called, The Cartoon Song. Now, do you people know what it's like to live in heaven? I heard it's better than you can imagine! But, do you know what down their is like? I don't want to know. But, you can get pretty close by listening to They Don't Serve Breakfast In Hell! by Newsboys.
Now lets talk about Trust. You need to follow the same verse. Proverbs 3: 5-6. You also need to follow Deuteronomy 6:5, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind. " This is a good verse to study when you are in a bad mood or are struggling through something. Also, if you don't want to study the Bible, you can listen to some songs. Such as, No Matter What by Kerrie Roberts. Also, if you need to get stronger to face your fears, listen to Stronger by Mandisa.
I know sometimes it doesn't feel like this, but God is their for you when you get frustrated. God can always help you. Like, for me. A lot of my relatives have passed away since I was little. So, one night I was asking God how they were all like! It made me feel a lot better. So, always talk to God. It also will help if you talk to your parents or a friend or a relative and see if they've been through the same thing! Trust me! You'll feel a lot better once you do. And, if anyone's in pain that you know, talk to them and pray with them, and pray for them! Trust Me! You won't regret it! Also, it'll help if you listen to Hold Me by Jamie Grace. Also if you need something to get you moving, listen to Move by MercyMe. You can listen to a lot of christian Music like, The Generous Mr. Lovewell by MercyMe. Also, Just Another Birthday by Casting Crowns. Also, Shackles on my Feet by Mandisa! Thank-You for doing this Devotional!
