Book Excerpt

Introduction

I want to trust God more. Don’t you?
 
When I read the list of faithful people in Hebrews 11, my soul longs to be like them. I want to be a woman of faith—not a woman of fear. I want to hear those beautiful words of my Savior when I see Him on the other side, “Well done, good and faithful servant! …Come share your master’s happiness” (Mat 25:21)!
 
There are many examples of faithful men and women who trusted God throughout history. You probably know people like that in your church and desire to be like them. But perhaps, deep down, you think that you could never be that godly.
We think these people are perfect and never fail—that they never doubt. I used to think like that until the Lord showed me from His Word that this was a lie.
 
Contrary to what most people believe, these faithful followers did waver. Just look at Abraham and King David. You can read the many times they failed to trust God and did things their own way. But they had a heart to be faithful to their one true God, and God honored that.
 
The Lord knows how hard it is for you and I to trust—especially when it comes to trusting Someone that we cannot see. People let us down, so we think God will too. But God is not like us! He is trustworthy. It is part of His character, of who He is. He cannot be anything but faithful.
 
“I will not violate my covenant…. I will never…fail to keep my promise to him. I have sworn an oath to David, and in my holiness I cannot lie.”
(Ps 89:33, 35 NLT)
 
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy to all he promises and loving toward all he has made.
(Ps 145:13; see also 2 Tim 2:13)
 
God wants us to believe—deep down in our souls—that He will come through on His promises; He wants us to trust Him. And He will not only show us how, but empower us to do it! He will give you the knowledge and the enabling you need to fulfill it—if you want it.
If you delight in Him, He will give you the desires of your heart (Ps 37:4).
 
So, then the question becomes, “Do you really want to trust God more?” If the answer is yes, then read on because God will show you how!
 
Workbook Section

I am thrilled that you want to go deeper in how to trust God more. All of us struggle with trusting God at times. I am so grateful God has shown me that our walk with Him is an ever-increasing progression from belief to faith to trust. I am so grateful that He is not expecting perfection from us, but simply desires us to move in the direction of trusting Him more.

Honestly, Trust God MORE has been one of the hardest books I’ve ever written. I think it’s because I want to tell you everything I know about our faith journey with God. I want you to know what I know. I want to minimize your hardships and lessen the time it takes you to get to the place of sweet fellowship with the Lover of your soul.

But that’s not my call, not my job. This is your journey with God. He is the One who determines the way you are to go. He knows the plans He has for you, and they are good. He knows what you need at every point along the way.

My job is to point you in the right direction, warn you of potential pitfalls, and encourage you to keep going because it’ll be worth it.

So as you use this material, realize these questions are just to get you started in thinking more deeply about your faith journey. I could have added a lot more questions, but I want you to let God Himself lead you to the truth you need to know and apply at this point in your walk with Him.

…He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry. He will answer you. Though he give you the bread of adversity and water of affliction, yet he will be with you to teach you—with your own eyes you will see your Teacher. And if you leave God’s paths and go astray, you will hear a voice behind you say, “No, this is the way; walk here.” (Is 30:19-21 TLB)
