Counsel #25 — Trust God With EVERYTHING!

Picture: Counsel #25 — Trust God With EVERYTHING! CWe 27.1

God longs for you to pour out your whole heart to Him in prayer, trusting Him fully with every aspect of your life! He doesn’t require polished phrases or perfect articulation; He desires the raw, unfiltered honesty of your soul. You can bring Him your deepest fears, your most passionate hopes, and the tangled threads of your daily struggles. Go ahead and cry out with the anguish of a broken heart, knowing that He hears every tear-soaked plea. Likewise, you can share what makes you happy and joyful as well as everything that concerns your peace. This open communication is not a one-sided monologue; it is a sacred dialogue, where you pause to listen for the gentle whispers of His guidance and the comforting assurance of His presence. Trusting God completely means relinquishing control, surrendering everything — your career, your relationships, your dreams — into His capable hands. It’s acknowledging that His wisdom surpasses your own, and believing His plans, though often veiled, are ultimately for your good.^[30] CWe 27.2

“Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.” Psalms 62:8 NKJV CWe 27.3
