This is the Air I Breathe...

Trust is a characteristic that requires faith that you will do what you've said. That you will keep your promise. The dictionary says that it's a "firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something."

Inside trust is a relaxation, an assuredness, that confidence, a pure sense of stability. I don't know the last time I've felt the purity of trust in its full concentration. At this very moment I have a knot in my throat that has been there throughout this entire leap of faith. It only goes always when I have some deep cleansing breaths. Otherwise it feels like I'm breathing shallow; almost holding my breath waiting for something to come along and break my trust. Standing in faith but looking for disappointment.

PSA: God is not a man. He can mot lie. He can not fail. He will keep his word. He will not leave you. It is impossible.

Our human encounters have given us a limited flawed view and "lack" of frame of reference with what it means to lean/depend on an unfailing God. We have become conditioned to expect disappointment and dropped balls. We protect out hearts by making ourselves a go-like version of what we want. But we cant even do that perfectly because we disappoint ourselves by not achieving things when we thought we would, by making a poor decision, by acting out of our emotions vs. being led by the spirit of just acting in wisdom. We are flawed being with flawed perspective.

Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart. Breathe deeply. He's sustaining you with the air you breathe. Give him everything, don't hold anything back; put all the bags on his arms.
