...and put your trust
      in the LORD.

          Psalm 4. 5

(Did it even occur to me
     to trust God in this?
Or is worry and fear
           my default?
Prayer is our first response,
      not last resort.
Prayer is the first step
      of trusting Him
in whatever we face,
both known and unknown.
God knows a lot more
         than we do.
He brings the supernatural
     to the situation,
because that is the way
    God always works.
"Trust Me in this."
And then take the first step.)

O LORD,
You do not just show up.
You are already here,
   working Your hand
   in these impossible situations.
Help us to not just believe
    but know that we are
                   not alone.
Help us to trust You
even when we don't understand.
Even when all we can do
        is trust You.
Trusting doesn't mean
   we have to
        know the outcome.
Just to know You.
May our lives be
    marked as Yours.
