A long time ago I had a friend who insisted that he couldn’t trust himself at all; whatever he thought up would be suspect. His proof text was Jeremiah 17:9: The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? That does look pretty grim, doesn’t it? It’s Old Testament so it predates the provision of Jesus Christ and the regeneration of the Holy Spirit. But instinctively, I had trouble with my friend’s insistence that he was incapable of good. He loved God and served Him.
That is a great passage , Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord. It is a process at times and also a life raft. It's hard when things don't go the way we want. When I was young, I thought God was going to bless me in everything I do. Well, you really have to give everything to God. And it is a blessing when everything you hope and dream don't come true, because not all your hopes and dreams are good for you. It's a sorting ground working our way through the wild jungle of life. God will lead us to havens in Him. And draw us closer to Him. Until the final day for all of us.
God Bless you Lana. I'm praying God will help you through your journey you are on now.<3
