Topic: TRUST (07/21/16)
Trust

The dictionary describes trust as a person having a reliance on the integrity, veracity= (a person totally devoted to conveying truth) and some one building their life on this trust precept. It is also something committed to ones care for use or safe keeping.

From a born again Christian perspective it is described, as a person having an inner expectation and a walk of faith as they mature on having their entire being becoming an unshakable cemented relationship with God the Father, who is the creator of all things. This world was created by a Fatherly ordered spiritual power.

The spirit of trust is the attribute of God himself and it must be motivated into our makeup in a relationship with him as we breathe oxygen to stay alive.

As we describing trust from God’s perspective, scripture tells us that, Christ stepped out of his heavenly realm and took on the infirmities of mankind and went to the cross to die for the cursed nature we were born. All creation was born with a sinner nature and were weak in being able to experiencing God’s glory. We didn’t have to earn that sacrifice as, He laid down his life never knowing if anyone would accept it. Only by us being motivated by the spirit of God in us can we do the same for each other. Experiencing our trust in God will create a bonding trust in the family of God.

Since trust is a characteristic of God himself, we must learn to let Christ live again through us through the influences of The Holy Spirit. Jesus tells us in scripture that, his whole focus and passion for life was having as a main priority to, trust and obey his Father’s voice. This has to be our first love if, we are going to have our steps being ordered by the Lord.

It is becoming evident to me that, we have every evil spirit at work in the world and it is getting more dangerous daily. I have come to believe scripture when Paul the Apostle tells us that, we must be able to tell the difference between trusting a lying spirit versus the spirit of God telling his children to use the discernment they have to test the spirits whether it is of God’s leadings or not.


As one of God’s children we have been given a prized gift of becoming the temple God lives in. His person and his love for us and all that he is, he has committed to our care in our inner being.

It is as we acknowledge God in all our ways through a surrendering trust in his all securing love and affection that will give us the inner courage to deal with our cares of life. Let us keep in mind at all times that “Jesus is the way, the truth and the life and no one comes to God the Father except through Him.”

Very informative! You could use a different title, such as "The Walk of Faith," or "A Spiritual Bond." ...so you don't use the topic word in the title. Some of your longer sentences could use a few commas. Keep up the good work!

You really covered a lot of material in this article.In some places there are some awkward words that can be worked on. A grammar checker might catch some of them but others will have to be checked by slowly reading each sentence maybe even out loud.

I like how Jesus showed his trust in God by dying for sin even though he had none. This aloud God to let him die in our place. For this concept we can completely trust and obey whatever God wants us to do.

Keep your heart in heaven and your eyes in his word as you write.
