Start Here: God is Trustworthy.

Are we pursuing God , or are we just casually Him?

Psalm 34:8 (NIV): 
“Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him.”

“Come close, try Me, and for yourself how good I am.” 

Proverbs 3:5-6 
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” 

Trusting God isn’t about knowing all the or having everything figured out; it’s about knowing that He holds it all in His hands.

Lean not on your own understanding:
“I surrender my to know”

Trust is about surrendering that need to or understand everything and simply resting in God’s goodness.

Can I really trust God in this?

Hindsight gives us .

The questions we often ask are…
Will He come through? 
Can I trust Him fully? 

False Narrative:
God is only trustworthy when things go well for us, or that His care is on how perfectly we live. 

17 “Why ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. But to answer your question—if you want to receive eternal life, keep the commandments.”

18 “Which ones?” the man asked.
And Jesus replied: “‘You must not murder. You must not commit adultery. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. 19 Honor your father and mother. Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

20 “I’ve obeyed all these commandments,” the young man replied. “What else must I do?”
21 Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he had many possessions.
