Trust

Trust; to trust, trust in; to have confidence, be confident; to be bold; to be secure; to cause to trust, make secure; to feel safe, be careless.
Careless; archaic- free from anxiety; effortless and unstudied

If I believe in you, literally there is faith in you and to have trust that means there safety and confidence. I trust that you will do what is right no matter what the circumstances.
It is a blind walk not just alone and living in the moment, but now trusting another and having faith in another, it means a blind walk with them as well.

Psalm 62:8 Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah

Proverbs 2:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

If trust is broken, with great care we can heal and a broken, healed heart will be stronger. There is a dying to oneself that must occur, and laying down of the pointing the finger. To walk through shame and anger back to love is a process that must occur for complete healing. Whatever it takes for each involved, trust is a the product of love. We see in our humanness that we are all sinners and fall short of His glory. He are all vulnerable and no one is without temptation. We all have been hurt in many ways. If only we can admit our 'own' faults and that we 'do' hurt each other, we will find healing.

Jesus was sinless, He is God made man, though tempted, He never sinned. We have a Lord who understands us and our temptations. Look... we are created in the image of God, but one that is incapable of a 100% sinless nature. Being human is flesh, and the flesh is corrupt.

To totally trust, I am confidence in, hope in, feel safe and secure in. And this is Jesus, in them, and with Him my trust 'is effortless'.
