“WHO DO WE TRUST?”

Me-Maw Thoughts

February 11, 2025///

As my husband Ronald was taken back this morning to have cataract surgery, I had some thoughts that I want to share.

We trust someone we do not really know to work on our eyes, our heart, and other vital parts of our body. We allow an anesthesiologist to put us to sleep and we believe it will be done correctly even though they are human.

If we did not trust in our creator God, we should be concerned. But if we place our trust in the one who made us, we can know who really is in charge and guiding everything happening.

In our daily lives, when our situation is beyond our control, we can trust the one who loves us best.

God is with us, our children, and other family members and if we trust Him, we should be confident that in every situation and in every person, He is in control.

So why do we sometimes put more Trust in Doctors than God?

Proverbs 3:5 (KJV)

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;

And lean not unto thine own understanding.

Proverbs 3:5 (TPT)

Trust in the Lord completely,

and do not rely on your own opinions.

Another thing that happened is I could accompany Ronald to the first place, the second place, but then I had to stay behind when he was taken to the surgery place.

We can be there for those we love but at some point, they are going to go into a place where we cannot be there. Maybe starting school, or an adult moving away or serving in the armed forces.

But we can pray and release them to the Lord God Almighty and know they are never alone or far from our heart!

We want to take care of the people we love and make everything right for them, but the only one who can truly keep them safe and give them peace is the one who loves them best: God who created them.

We trust the Lord for Salvation, which transforms us inside! But then we act like we cannot trust Him in the big and little things of life.

It is the Father who made us and not our self!

As the Disney movie, Frozen, says: LET IT GO!

In addition, we can say: GOD’S GOT THIS!

If we believe He is God, and we are not. If we believe He is all powerful, then let us walk like our Father is going to lead us, guide us, fight for us, and take care of us!

Isaiah 45:2 (KJV)

I will go before thee,

And make the crooked places straight:

“It is sweet to Trust in Jesus!”

Father, thank you! We can trust you! Thank you that your word is true, and you are with us, and for us, and will never leave us! You are Faithful and fight our battles! In Jesus name I pray! Amen!
