So I was struck with an interesting thought a while back: Why is it that we as Christians are so willing to trust God with something so great as our eternal salvation but yet we so often won't trust Him with even this very day He has given us?
I mean seriously. Think about all the things we often don't trust God with. Relationships. Finances. Jobs. School. Possessions (which ironically aren't really ours anyway). The list could go on. Sure I say that I trust God, but when I look at what I spend my time and energy working on and thinking (or is that worrying?) about I can't help but be convicted that it is not a matter of merely saying that I trust but I still have to actually let go of that control. Easier said than done. Something I can't claim to have a real handle on how to do either. But I guess that figuring that out is a matter of trust too eh?
