Trusting God is not that Easy, but it’s the Best Thing that you can do
Trust is not that easy to give. It only exists because of consistency and deep relationship. It’s not something that you can find around the corner.

Remind yourself that God gave all of us the Freedom to Choose
God is not controlling. In fact, He gave all of us the freedom to choose. He may allow certain situations to happen in your life, but you can always manage your thoughts and reactions. You are not a robot. You are not programmed to do limited things. God already presented you with the resources that you need. And it’s your choice if you will use them or not. God has the power to transform your life, but He can’t do it if you won’t allow Him. He will never force you to do something you don’t want. His plans for you may be great, but you won’t experience them if…
