Trust... or the lack there of

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will direct your paths."

- Proverbs 3:5-6

I went to Six Flags this weekend with my friend Sarah from ISU & her twin sister. We had a lot of fun. :) On the way up, I was reflecting on life and how I've allowed certain things to happen and such.. and I remembered this verse.

I know this verse very well.. but while I was driving I realized that this is the source for a lot of where I've tripped along the path. I know that I have an issue with trust.. but it really stems back to the lack of trust I have that God is in control and that He will guide my every step as I delight myself in Him. I know that I've realized this before and wondered why I would ever doubt the Maker of all things.. but it's just good to realize it again, I guess.

I have so much ahead of me, which make me excited. I look back on some decisions I have made and I know that I have made mistakes. So, instead of wallowing in the mistakes, I'm going to just keep my eyes focused on the future and really focus and practice on trusting God.

Because.. really.. that's the key to life.
