Trust is earned, it is not a given. Would you agree?
Having animals has taught this truth to me. There is an odd thing about it though. I have noticed an injury to the animal that needs my care builds a trust that lasts the remainder of that animals life with me. It’s as if the injury helped build that trust between them and me.
I sure am not one to be looking for injuries to myself or my animals, but I can say it has also worked that way for me as well. Serious injuries have forced me to place the trust of my care to people I do not know. Seems to me trust at times can be a leap of faith.
I wonder, do you think God has something like that in mind for us through pain and injury? To teach us to trust in Him? Hmmm…

This really made me think!!
Ahhh, well I hope it is a good think, Michelle.

I believe this is true. When we turn to him with our problems or aches and pains, and he faithfully guides us it does build trust.
That’s what I think too, Ruth.

Boy does this hit home. You go from one medical professional to another hoping for some relief when they all say nothings wrong. I have been looking in the wrong place! Thank you for the reminder to trust in God. 😇
We will never go wrong placing our hope and trust in God. Yes? 😊
