And I'm quick to construct my own. I'm so glad God is so patient and faithful. "I want to feel free to live and jump knowing that the only one who's a safe shield for me is calling me to trust Him without fear and without hesitation." When I read this, my heart said, "Yes! Oh, how I long for that, too!"

I often find myself praying those help-my-unbelief prayers. But yes and amen...His word is full of His promise to do beyond what our finite mind and often lacking faith can comprehend.

This is a...I find myself building safety nets, too. This is a great metaphor for how we sometimes rely on our own control, on our own power. As I read, I kept thinking that I know WHO our safety net should be - not man-made, but God-made. Yes, His word and His hope are where we can securely put our trust. I need the reminder on occasion (hopefully without the falling on my face...relating to that as well...) I'm glad I was your neighbor today - have a wonderful week.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07263629738556756592noreply@blogger.com
