Set Free

John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me."

I needed to read Jesus' words today. It seems so simple, to trust, but it is one of the hardest aspects of my walk with Jesus, especially when life starts to come at me a bit. I am so easily shaken by particular things, and each time they rear their ugly heads, I am shaken. I know I have more growing to do and I know that God is working richly in me. It's just that sometimes the refiners fire is a bit painful and even scary. This verse is perfect because it reminds me of where to look. Look to God because He looks at the heart.  All of these things that shake me have no impact on my heart. My salvation is secure. I am loved by the Creator of the universe. I am resting in His power and I live in His resurrection. I can trust in the finished work of Christ on the cross and my heart is not troubled, it is set free. Amen!
