This is related to the post I did two days ago. Just like I have a hard time listening to other people sometimes, I also have a hard time listening to God. Yuck. It doesn't sound great to say that. I know in my head that God knows best, but sometimes my heart doesn't trust. Why is that? When I am clearly thinking, it seems crazy to not trust Him. But it's there. And I think most of the time it's because I don't know that He actually knows best. (Again crazy, I know.) I think that I may know better or more. But seriously, I. do. not.
My mother-in-love shared this thought from a conference that she went to recently, "You don't know what you don't know." I think that I have all the info. That I "know" the quickest route, but I just don't know that I don't know about the construction up ahead. I am sure that I "know" WHY someone did something or said something, but I just don't know that she really meant __________. I am sure I can see the great big picture for my life, but I just don't know what's around the bend. So, this isn't really a post to tell you how to fix that attitude. Rather, it's to let you know that I know how you feel too. Join me in the "I don't know everything" club. That one I will keep my membership card to, but the "sometimes I don't trust my Heavenly Daddy" club, I am tearing up my membership card. I don't want to be in that one. I do KNOW that He wants what is best for me and He is worthy of my trust. I love Him and He loves me more than I can imagine. Here it goes. Each day is remembering that God does know best. Thanks for reading. :-)
