Trusting in God Becomes Natural
You cannot have faith in some thing or someone without having complete trust in the thing or the person. Complete trust must be established before we will impart our faith. Having complete trust in God will even change the way we pray to Him. Having complete trust in God also changes the way we approach Him or even think about Him.
We have read and have heard what the Word of God says about the power of faith. The Scriptures says: "We are saved by His grace through our faith." Christ talked about the power and the importance of faith often. I believe most Christians understand this power but sometimes fall short of lending their faith as they would like.
So, how can we establish complete trust in God? Simply, by getting to know God! Can it be that simple? Yes it can! If we see God as someone whom we only go to, to get something, then we are short changing ourselves.
But for those of us who finds so much joy in just being in His presence, trusting in Him becomes natural. And if our trust is natural, so then is our faith.
A small child enjoy being with his/her parents as much as possible. When the child sees something he wants, the child does not hope the parent will get it for him, but actually expect to receive it.
Trusting as to whether or not the parent can provide the thing or having faith in the parent willingness to provide the thing is not an option to even consider. The reason is because of the relationship the child has with his or her parents.
Here's the good part. This type of faith goes beyond trust. This type of faith is based on a bond forged in love. And love knows no boundaries.
The enemy would be wise not to approach a child of God. When the Scriptures says "Touch not the Lord's anointed," those are not just words. A mother will fight a Kodiak bear over her child and win.
God's love is much more.
