Trusting My Heavenly Father

These last couple of months God has been speaking to my heart about trusting Him. When I would spend time and get quiet before Him, I could sense Him asking me.. "Hannah do you trust me?" I would answer and say, "Father I do trust you, help me to trust you more."

Let's say you were walking down the street and some strange person comes up to you asking you to come over to their house to hang out. Most likely you probably would not go with that person. Why? Because you have not spent time with them. To build trust with a person you develop a relationship and spend time with them. As you spend time with them, you find out their character. You can tell if they are trustworthy or not. 

I have only a handful of friends in my life that I consider my heart friends. I call them my heart friends because I have spent time with each of them, and I trust my heart to them. This is how we can have trust in our Heavenly Father, by spending quality time with Him, He wants us to trust our hearts to Him.

 When God asked me if I trusted Him I knew that I had areas in my life that I needed to trust Him more. As I am learning to trust God for my life one of my favorite scriptures is Proverbs 3:5 (AMP) 

"Lean on trust in and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding."

Our Heavenly Father wants us to trust our hearts to Him. He knows everything about us. His love for us will never fail or come to an end. I know He is speaking to your heart... Do you trust Him?
