Shining as Stars

Trust in God; Trust also in me – but how and why?

Interesting, isn’t it? The why part is actually relatively easy to see.  If we trust God, then our hearts won’t be troubled.  That’s the goal, isn’t it?  

But the how part.  Even though I want the goal of not worrying, not being troubled, trust is so hard to come by.

The thing is, from watching the dogs I’ve had, I can see that trust is possible between them and me.  Even Hachiko, the most scared dog of all, came to trust me.  Even though things happened, like the can of paint.

So if I take the relationship between Hachiko and me – use it to see what a relationship could be like between me and God – it helps.  Helps me, anyway.
