Trust in ???

When times get tough, who or what do you trust in? Where do you pull strength from to continue? Where do you seek counsel and advice to better understand?

Life is a bumpy ride for everyone. We are all people moving. Some have understanding of their true purpose and some don't. Some are walking in truth and some not. Some have everything they could desire materially and some are depleted of moral consciousness. The truth is we are all hurting people navigating through life. Life and who ever choose to become an accomplice to it, can have a time with you making you feel as though you are never good enough, strong enough, intelligent or pretty enough. It can make you feel like killing yourself or even more dangerous, slip into a comma where you are physically alive, but dead or sleep on the inside.

In this journey of my life, I talk with thousands of people who possess the power to overcome and defeat anything that comes their way in life. Some of us have never truly known what it is to have a really hard life, other than not making enough money. I fall guilty of being a complainer of the lack of finances and not being thankful of having a roof over my head, food on the table and gas in the tank! I take my personal stock and say I am blessed.

I choose in this life, to trust not in what I can see, but in the power that is working on my behalf to navigate my life in the way it is supposed to go. After all, it was all preplanned by God. If it was all preplanned by God, then I choose to trust, that at this very precise moment, I just came through one of the most challenging weekends in 2009. After a lot of promises by man, I have endured betrayal, abandonment, and lies that we have all encountered. I lost my closest confidant. Through it all I took the time to mourn, but now, I am back.

When the situation around me ceases to exhibit peace I know it is coming from one source. That source is not truth, has never been and will never be. After I dried my eyes, I sit here erected in my posture, head up and smiling. I trust in the plan maker. I trust in He who gave me life, purpose and power to walk in His glory. I trust...again.
