Obeying Jesus

Why is it so hard for us to simply obey God? To do the thing that we know is best for us? Why do we disobey him? My answer is because I think I know what’s best for me. Because I’m lacking my faith in him or his power. I know that he has all the power to give me whatever that is I need in life, yet I don’t put my life in his hand.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight” Proverbs 3:5-6
This passage telling me that I should trust the lord with our decision. This passage teaching me to trust god with all my heart, not partial of my heart. I should not put all my decision based on my understanding in term of thinking I know what best for me. I might think I know what best for me but I am unable to see the big picture that God sees, therefore, I must trust him with all my heart. If i acknowledge that he knows what best for me, if i just trust him to make decision for me, then everything will fall into places. My challange is to trust him with all my heart, and have faith in him with everything that he has plan for me.

 

|On another notes, I finally share my faith with my sister, Phuong, and helping my sister see the awesome God that he is. I though she has lost her faith in god, but he seems to break through her and show her his power. This help me realize how powerful our god is. How much he loves each and all of us. He doesn’t forget any of us. He has a plan for all of us|
