Can God Count On You? A Question of Divine Trust
Trust in God is a two-way relationship that requires both faith and accountability. When we contemplate our relationship with God, we often focus on our trust in Him. However, an equally important question emerges: Can God trust us?

This question challenges us to examine how we steward what God has entrusted to us. It's about being faithful in both small and significant matters:
-
In our work: "Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people." (Colossians 3:23 NLT)
-
In our perseverance: "Be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless." (1 Corinthians 15:58 NLT)
-
In our purpose: "For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago." (Ephesians 2:10 NLT)
God's trust in us manifests in various ways:
- Excellence in our daily work
- Persistence through challenges
- Fulfilling our divine purpose
- Using our talents and gifts wisely
- Being faithful stewards of our resources
Remember that God has created each of us with a specific purpose and mission. When we align our actions with His will and demonstrate faithfulness in our responsibilities, we prove ourselves trustworthy servants of His divine plan.
The question remains: Can God trust you to fulfill His heart's desire for your life?
