                                             Trusting Jesus
 Psalm 146:7, 8
The LORD frees the prisoners. 
The LORD opens the eyes of the blind.
The LORD lifts the burdens of those bent beneath their loads.  (NLT)

     Only God can set us free from the power of sin, restore our broken lives, and transform us into the likeness of His Son.  But in order for this to happen, we must humbly live our lives in repentance, accept His forgiveness, and believe He is the Sovereign God who keeps His every  promises.  There is always hope when we trust the Lord with our lives, for He is all powerful and all knowing.  He provides all that we need and protects us from being destroyed by the Enemy of our souls.  The Lord loves us even when we don't love Him and He is always faithful even when we are not.  His abiding love is unconditional and He is over flowing with amazing grace and mercy. 
     Why not step out of your comfort zone and let the Savior of the world take you on an eternal life-journey unlike anything the world can offer you.  Who better to trust than the One True God who always has been and always will be—the One who created us?  Our Creator knows everyone completely and far better than we know ourselves.  Most of us have made a real mess out of our lives by trusting this fallen world and relying on our own limited abilities to find truth and purpose to this life.  When we learn about the incredible attributes of God and His absolute truths about life and death, the best option we have is trusting in our Creator—the One who saved us from eternal condemnation by hanging naked, nailed to a wooden cross.  You can fully trust in your Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ, because He is the Way and the Truth to eternal life.  

                                                 A Whisper of Hope
Learn to say…“I trust in You Jesus” whenever you find yourself in dire need.  Take a moment of time to ponder the awesome power I have and know the depth and the breadth of My Love for you.  This simple practice will help you in every situation.  By acknowledging My sovereignty you will view your circumstances in a new light.  By trusting Me, your fear and uncertainty  loses its grip on you. 

Isaiah 58:11
The LORD will guide you continually, watering your life when you are dry…
You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.  (NLT)

                            Therefore, if the Son makes you free, 
                         you shall be free indeed.
                                            (John 8:36)
