Encouraging Scripture-Where Can You Place Your Trust

Trust is a big thing in our lives.  It is something that should be earned and not given easily, but some people are incapable of doing so.  They don't trust anyone, starting with themselves.  I've certainly gone through seasons in my life where I've made a series of mistakes and questioned my ability to trust myself.  I was looking in the wrong place.  The absolute foundation of trust in in God.  Once we learn to trust Him, then we can look toward others and bestow our trust on them.  We may even be able to trust that person looking back at us in the mirror every morning.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5 (NIV) from Bible Gateway
