One of the reasons we Christians find ourselves in trouble is because we have a tendency to say that we believe but we often do not trust.
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me.”John 14:1
“I am the way the truth and the life ” John 14:6
Why were the disciples troubled? Because they did not trust. So then ,it is a matter of what ever situation we are in we can trust God. You see He is the way, He is the truth and He is the life.
Now, He doesn’t say I will show you the way, no, He says I am the way. He doesn’t say I will tell you about truth, no, He is the truth. He doesn’t say I know how you can get life,no, He says I am life. When you get hooked up with Jesus you are on the way , you know the truth and you have life.
If we can tap into this principle then we will not have troubled hearts. We will not only believe but we will trust.
Be encouraged with these scriptures about trouble. You see trouble is all around us but you must recognize that God is all around us dealing with our trouble.
We have been talking about trouble in the last few post and I am sure there is no need to try and define trouble. Most of us have our own definition. Up to this point we have seen that God is in our midst as we go trough our troubles.
I do believe there is a way that we might escape some of the troubles we find ourselves in at times. let me share a scripture with you that is important.
“So don’t worry about tomorrow. for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.” Matthew 6:34 English standard verson.
Today’s trouble, does that mean we will automatically have some kind of trouble today? I guess it does, sure didn’t want to hear that kind of nonsense. I guess tomorrow will soon be today, so I guess I can assume when tomorrow becomes today I will have a new set of troubles.
Seems like a vicious circle to me. I am sure glad I have God in the midst of this day to help me with the troubles I have today and no doubt He will be there when tomorrow turns into today. I tell you what, I am not going to worry about tomorrow.
