Believe in yourself the way God believes in you.

When God closes a door He does not always open a window. Sometimes He wants you to sit in the quiet darkness while He transforms your fear into trust. How long that takes, is often up to you!

Your life will always be the perfect classroom journey for you and every experience that shows up in your journey is here to serve you. There is meaning and purpose behind everything that happens. There are no accidents which means your suffering through difficulties is never for nothing. Your life matters and everything you experience matters. Your trials are there to help you become a better person and trusting this is truth will take some of the sting out of them. Suffering becomes more bearable if it at least counts for something.

The end of ourselves is the beginning of God

The moment you learn the lesson, the test will be over.

To be sure, it was not Easter Sunday but Holy Saturday, but, the more I reflect on it, the more this seems to be fitting for the nature of our human life: we are still awaiting Easter; we are not yet standing in the full light but walking toward it full of trust.

Trust is not a passive state of mind. It is a vigorous act of the soul by which we choose to lay hold on the promises of God and cling to them despite the adversity that at times seeks to overwhelms us.

God alone knows exactly what you and I must endure in order to form His character in us. It is in our trials that God refines us and removes our impurities. Like refined gold, when we pass through our trials, people will see His perfect reflection in us.

Trust is developed under pressure and over time; just as with God by us." ~R. Alan Woods [2013]

I learned that within the confines of God__ story, nothing had been stolen from me, but rather everything was given to me. My life, which felt so out of control, was in reality in complete control _ God__ control.

Despite countless prayers for Joseph to be safe, God said no. His plan remains a mystery. I have had to accept that mystery and trust Him in the dark.

Trust God with your love life, and buckle up for the ride!

For me, doing the actual work to fulfill the vision is the easy part. It's the emotional journey that I go through as I am free falling into the unknown that is the hard part. But each time I jump, I'm learning to trust that God will continue to guide me and help me to land safely.

All wisdom comes from God.

Faith all grown up is trust.

Always trust your instinct! If you just close your eyes, talk to God and listen you can always hear the truth

There were so many things going on inside me and on the outside__any beyond my control. However, one thing I could control was to pray and commit myself every day to trust God so He could guide me.___ilda B. Rivera, Courage Under Fire

I don't trust people. The good part is, i don't really have to. I've surrendered my faith to the Higher power, and it's unconditional love for me. Who am i to question it's motives? Even if there are things i can't understand. This is why there's no need to trust people - if they are on my path, it means they are good for me.
