Trust

I've been struggling with trust lately. How do I demonstrate trust? Specifically, when we are called to trust God - how should that be demonstrated? Does it mean to sit still and watch the events unfold? Does it mean go forward with your actions and hope/trust that it is in alignment with God's will?

I grew up in a family with the motto - God helps those who help themselves. I don't know if I totally believe that motto - but if action is believe - then maybe I do.

I know that God knows what I want, I know too that He wants us to ask for what we need/want but to ultimately accept that He knows better and may decide in a different direction. Sometimes He lets us have what we want and let the consquences teach us.

I've done what I can (in regards to a work situtation) - I do think it is time to just sit back. When the results are revealed - I want to accept and move forward. I am trusting that God will help me do so!
