If you find yourself deciding to trust God, then you must also trust in all of his nature. Going all classic Amplified Bible on ya; knowing, being confident, non-wavering, on the very issue that God runs the universe and nothing happens that He doesn’t make or at the very least, allow!
Who could confront me and get by with it?
Job 41:11 (MSG)
I’m in charge of all this—I run this universe!
One who is trust worthy demonstrates certain qualities. They are:
Integrity, Sincerity, Reliability, Consistency, Commitment, Competent
The list above are not qualities of God, but part of his very nature! This is just simply who He is! When you get to know him, by talking to him in prayer, and reading his word, the Holy Bible, his nature is revealed to you. Just as important is knowing that God doesn’t ever change who He is due to what is happening around us, but forever the same.
For Jesus doesn’t change—yesterday, today, tomorrow, he’s always totally himself.
Heb. 13:8 (MSG)
Keep in mind, Jesus repeated often, in the gospels, that he does what He sees his heavenly Father do, therefore we can know that God doesn’t change either! Spending time with someone is the best way to get to KNOW THEM. So I challenge to do just that. Spend time with God, and perhaps his nature will rub off on you. Umm, not such a bad idea.

I almost blew it! What if I hadn’t of done what I had committed to God to do? I had told him a few years ago I would do my best to never miss a deadline to writing a blog. If I had what would have happened? I know one thing, the end result wouldn’t have been the same.
