“Trusting God through Unemployment”
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him,and he shall direct thy paths.
Carla F. writes:
This scripture is special to me because I have experienced some negative, challenging, hard times as a single parent. It has not been easy at all. This scripture tells me to trust (hope, believe) in the LORD completely, fully, without doubt, and not to depend on my own understanding.
In everything I do, I must become aware of Him, know and understand that He exist and He will divinely guide me. He will order my steps and tell me exactly what to say or do. Life is so hard without God. I can’t imagine NOT trusting in Him, for without faith it is impossible to please Him. Trusting in Him means my hope is in God, and therefore, my circumstances are entrusted to His will and His way. Are you unemployed? “Trust in the LORD with all your heart” ……..I did.
