Trust is such an expensive thing to acquire in our day and age, whether it is from a family member or a best friend. These people always promise one thing and do another.
While reading my Bible, preparing myself for our branches Youth month this coming September, one thing popped out at me. It was so clear through all the chapters that I had read, it seemed as though it was a theme , a story line that made a lot of sense. God makes promises and HE always fulfills them. Yes they may not come at the time you expect them to but HE never fails to grant the greatness HE has prepared for you all you need to do is be patient.
At my young age I have walked through so many burdens, I have cried so many rivers I have lost count. When all the troubles and turmoil take place in my life I always question myself asking why do I have to suffer? Am I not allowed time to smile? To relax and be stress free? Then the answer came to me one day as I realize whenever I am in the midst of troubles I forget about my creator and instead I focus on all the negative taking place in my life.
But when does God ever promise that one will not suffer on earth? People think that because we are people of faith that suffering and hardships are not part of the package. This mentality on its own is very wrong. God only promises to be there with you and help you through any trouble you may be going through as long as you trust and believe in HIM.
He has never once promised an easy journey here on earth but rather in heaven HE says all our burdens and troubles will be left at the gates and we shall sing and be merry all the days of our eternal life....
Why then should we question God when HE builds our character through the suffering we go through why not just hand all our baggage to HIM as HE is able to carry all that for us. HE promises to eventually turn our scars to stars and all our troubles will be turned into triumphs.
Psalms 46;10 " Be still, and know that HE is God."
Simply put he can handle any and all things for you just acknowledge that HE is who HE says he is GOD
