5 to Chew On... Trusting God

We cannot always trace God’s hand, but we can always trust God's heart. C.H. Spurgeon

Faith does not operate in the realm of the possible. There is no glory for God in that which is humanly possible. Faith begins where man’s power ends. George Muller

Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading. Oswald Chambers

It is just as important to trust God as it is to obey Him. When we disobey God we defy His authority and despise His holiness. But when we fail to trust God we doubt His sovereignty and question His goodness. In both cases we cast aspersions upon His majesty and His character. God views our distrust of Him as seriously as He views our disobedience. Jerry Bridges

When God gives a promise, He always tries our faith. Just as the roots of trees take firmer hold when they are contending with the wind, so faith takes a firmer hold when it struggles with adverse appearances. Robert Murray McCheyne

And... I know it's meant to be five... because it is an important subject:

It is never a question with any of us of faith or no faith; the question is always in what or whom do we put our faith. Author Unknown
