Trust

Tonight I went to the adult bible study instead of youth small group (the youth were leaving the church campus so I needed to stay with Allie). I think God intended it to happen that way because Pastor Kevin talked about trusting God. Since God has been dealing with me and my fears, the "trust" word fits right into this journey I'm on. Sometimes it takes a person pointing out what it really means to trust God for you to realize that you may not be trusting Him in every area. At the end of the service people shared verses that people struggling with trusting God in certain areas could use to strengthen their faith/trust, and rehearse God's promises to us. So here is the one that I will be clinging to for now. 
 1 John 4:18 "There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life- fear of death, fear of judgment- is one not yet fully formed in love."
