Re: Complete and utter trust...
« on: January 31, 2019, 11:18:52 am »
In my quest to trust God completely and utterly in everything, I am reminded of just how often I fail to trust Him completely.

A few weeks ago, I was trying to get through the house (because of health problems I have to use a walker) and my son's massive (no exaggeration)  shoes were in the way after I had asked him to move them about 20 times (a bit of an exaggeration but you get it)  Well, my leg was killing me, I couldn't get through, he needed a ride, and so I got frustrated, let out something between a scream and a yell then burst into tears.  I spoke of this to our pastor and he pointed out that we all get frustrated....I accept that but that frustration is a lack of complete and utter trust in God and what He is doing in and through me.  Complete trust would have looked much different.

Even as I type this, I am struggling with that complete trust...which I am not sure I am ready to lay on the table of a public forum at this time....nothing that bad, just know that some people could take it wrong and not understand that the thing I want to talk about is how to trust God in everything not in all the other issues that could be drawn from my current frustrations.

So I'm not even sure what question I want to ask but I would love to talk about complete and utter trust of God in every situation.  Any part of it you want to talk about, how, why, when, is it even possible, etc. are all on the table.  EVen how to trust God when we fail once again...or forget to trust...any part of it all
I don't think being frustrated is about trust in God. Even Jesus displayed righteous anger (in the temple). We are in our worldly, fallen state, we have our fallible bodies that we are not able to keep under control all the time. We should strive to live as close to Christ's example as we can, but we should not fall into the trap of scrupulosity and put ourselves down because of every single slip-up.
most of this I agree with, but where I disagree is that frustration and anger are the same thing
