Trust

Throughout the past few years, I've always had a problem with trust. Whether it was trust with my parents or with friends. Trust is a big thing in relationships for me. I want to be able to trust my friends, and know that in certain situations, I can trust them. But, there's also been problems with people being able to trust me. For a while in my life, I was going through a time where I wanted to get away with certain things. My parents ALWAYS found out about it in the end. I didn't realize the pattern until I fell apart and my parents no longer trusted me! I had to keep building it back up and that was pretty complicated. I got a lot less privileges and everything I did was monitored. I didn't like that, but I knew that it was for the better. 


"Trust is like a piece of paper, once its crumpled it can never be perfect again" and "It takes years to build trust, and a second to destroy it" are two of my favorite quotes about trust, because they are so very true! It doesn't take much to ruin trust. It's SO hard to build back up, once you lose it!
Since my past experiences with losing trust, I've gotten a lot of my trust back, but not all of it, completely. I'm not sure I'll EVER fully get my trust back, but it's worth building it up as much as I can! Building up trust could be, like telling your parents about something you have maybe kept from them, maybe an area they could help you in, or something that you're dealing with and need their help! Don't try to do it alone! That's why your parents are there... to help you through your rough spots in life! 
But, one thing I know for SURE, is that God will NEVER let us down! He is SO reliable! His trust will NEVER be broken with us. 


Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. " 


God WANTS you trust trust him! Because he knows what's best for you. He has a plan for your life and he is really the only person that you should trust... He is the only one who knows what's going to happen in your life! :)  TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, SOUL, STRENGTH & MIND! :)
