Either You Trust Or You Don't!

By ourselves, we must admit, we are limited. There are things we can and not do. The time will come, in case we have not come to that point yet, when we would certainly realize it. When it comes, hopefully, we are prepared for it. Otherwise, we might not be able to cope with it.
But we are not that hopeless. Recognition of one's limitation is knowing that we have rooms for improvement. It gives us the best reason to ask, to be connected, and to accept more. If we accept it with humility, it will open many avenues for progress and growth, and transcendence! Of all the avenues that will be available, there is one that is the best. In fact, it is the only one necessary. It is God!

God is our Creator. Definitely, we can not be more than Him. We are way way way below Him. But for the same reason, He knows us best. Much more, He loves us very much. He did not give His only Son to die for us for nothing? Only because He loves us and wants the best for us. The limitations we have provides that opportunity. The opportunity for God to fill our needs. He is the perfect "filler", in a manner of speaking. A saint, in fact regards Him as our "enough". With God, we are full and perfect. Only Him can satisfy and fulfill our humanity. What is required of us is to trust Him. This is difficult because the challenges and offerings of life seem more attractive. However, the need of trust is trust. Either we trust or we do not trust. If we trust God, He will see us through. If we do not, we will never know what is at the end.
Who or what do we trust? Hopefully no one and nothing but God!
