Our lives reflect what we hold to be most valuable. We do what we want to do even if it poses a difficulty. We find a way. I realize there are on occasion, circumstances that thwart our best laid plans. But for the most part, our priorities are very evident, and we are only as good as our word. Why is it that so many think "I will" actually means "I might"? And why do we not know that sooner or later people will no longer trust us if we don't do what we say we will do? I can only suppose it's because we really don't care. How very difficult it is to rebuild a trust you once had and no longer have. You are simply unbelievable.
However, thanks to a gracious and merciful God, it IS possible to rebuild trust. How I love this fact. Without it, we are without hope. But with it, we become as if we were a new person...all together new! Maybe a little "baggage" to unstrap, but none-the-less, feelings of being different invade us. Now we can face our future with a large smile on our face because "everything becomes new." The difficulties we must face is now possible because God is at the center of our life. The road may still have it's bumps and even hills and sometimes mountains to tread upon, but we can do it with peace in our hearts because we are not trying to navigate them by ourselves. And truth is at the center of all we do. Awww...the sweet scent of peace.
