It is printed on our money - In God We Trust - but do we really? Trust is something that does not happen immediately - it is earned - gained - from experience. Many people have difficulty trusting in God - past disappointments - ignored prayers - paradise gained - lost. It is understandable why some have this feeling - losing loved ones - jobs - financial security. Life is filled with so many variables - at any moment things can change from good to bad - vice versa. God has blessed us with this Earth and all that is in it - He does not micro manage. With His gift of Free Will - we affect many of the changes in our lives. Taking the high road or the low - up to us - God blesses whichever route we take - up to us to make the most of the route we chose to follow. If we choose wrongly - can always go back - make a new decision - follow a different route. When we think God failed us - vice versa - we failed ourselves. Ignoring His clues - things placed before our eyes - our fault - not His. When analyzing our failures - not because He wasn't trust worthy - rather the World - not God failed us.
Jesus had no choice but to trust in God - His Father. There must have been times when He paused - questioned - placed His trust in His Father - who knows all. His trust paid off - just as ours will. Trust in God is golden - a link between Him - us. In these days of Lent - in these days of concerns of the coronavirus - we place our trust completely in God.
