Who Do You Trust When Things Are Tough?

September 19, 2017

When things are tough, default back into the arms of God.

 

Three main sources of what’s truthful about relationships are God, mature trusted friends and mentors, and yourself. But only trust yourself after years of walking with God. Until then, selfishness gets in the way. But who do you trust if your relationship is in distress? Default back to trusting mostly in God and some in mentors or counselors. Not in yourself. Pain and fear have a way of biasing our viewpoint. Repent of wrongdoing, ask for and grant forgiveness, and extend grace.
