The Catcher

Do you know trust fall?

It's a way to exercise trust with your team mates, coworkers, or any group of people.

You will stand up with your hand crossed in front of your chest and drop yourself straight down backward from a height. How would that test your trust? It would because you will feel the hesitance to let yourself fall backwards. Oops!! Of course your friends or family will be down there to catch you.

Let us apply this to our daily life. When we're standing on our problems, who do you trust to catch your trust fall? Your parents? Your friends? Your boyfriend or girlfriend? Your teacher? Do you ever encounter a problem which you do not feel like you can share with those trusted ones? Or you are not sure if they would give the right advice for you? Do you know why you have that hesitance in your heart? It is because you know all of us are imperfect, and we make mistakes. There is only one who is perfect, GOD :)

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. ~Proverbs 3 : 5 - 6

God tells us to trust in Him with all of our hearts. Trust is when you RELY on someone. The question is can you trust someone you do not know? Imagine sharing your problems to some random strangers; I do not think you would do that, right? So, build your relationship with God. For those who do not know Him yet, test Him for He will not let you down :D How to build your relationship with Jesus? Pray, pray, pray, and read His words.

How to not lean on our understanding? When we're having problems, sometimes we think there's no more hope. Amazingly, nothing is impossible in Him; therefore, He wants us to see things through His perspective where nothing is impossible.

He wants us to acknowledge Him :) Know that He is down there to catch all of your falls. Isn't it wonderful to know how someone perfect is always there 24/7 to help you out with your problems?

The best thing of all is the last part where He said that He will make our paths straight.

Let us surrender everything and just drop ourselves into His arms, and He will carry us in His gentle arms through the right paths. Thank You Abba Father :)
