I love the way Eugene Peterson interprets yesterday’s scripture and the thing that stands out to me is that he begins with, the person who trusts me. Trusting God is so vital to every aspect of our lives. Not just the big miracle things as referenced yesterday, but even the day to day things. So many of our struggles in life could be made easier if we would trust Him enough to let go of them.

John 14:12

The person who trusts me will not only do what I’m doing but even greater things, because I, on my way to the Father, am giving you the same work to do that I’ve been doing. You can count on it.

God is alive and well and He loves you more than you can possibly know. He is present, always near and is actively pursuing you. God wants your best and is completely worthy of your trust.

Scripture says that God will supply all our needs. However we have to let Him. Our choice, freewill comes into the equation all day, every day. Am I going to trust God with this or am I going to take this myself. One decision leads to peace and assurance and the other to worry and anxiousness. I know I say this frequently but He really is more than enough.
