Mark 8:21

Mark 8:21

If I can trust in Christ and have faith, then I will be better able to understand His teachings.

I think that when I am confused about things, and don't know where to turn, I always have somewhere to go. I can pray, and I do, about every little thing. The trouble is, it's really hard sometimes to listen to what the Lord has to say in return, and sometimes hard to trust in what He tells me to do. I have many times said my prayer, and gone to sleep right away, not taking the time to ponder and listen. Heavenly Father wants to tell me what is going to be good for me. He wants me to be as happy as I can be, because I know He loves me. I need to work on trusting more, because then I will understand what He wants for me. I will not be ignorant of His will if I do it trustingly, and I will be happy because of it. I love this principle, but it is also daunting, because the scripture it comes from is Christ saddens by a lack of understanding from His disciples. I want to understand, so I am making a goal to listen a little closer, and trust a little more.
