When we look at the word trust often used in scripture, we see a very different picture of what it means to trust in God. For many of us, we think that to trust God, we have to be fully confident in that moment, but we see that our trust comes from a place of desperation so often. It's okay to be in that place and it's okay for us to lead from that place. God wants us to release what we are holding onto and have open hands to hold on to Him.
