Trusting Jesus

My parents and I decided to go to church this evening to avoid a potential snow storm. My dad drove and mom always gets the front passenger seat, so I was in the back. Typically, I like to drive. First of all, I really enjoy it. And probably like most people, I feel more of a sense of control. I acknowledged that feeling as I sat looking out the back window at the cars and scenery whizzing by. So, I started repeating one of my favorite mantras; “Jesus I love you totally” inhale deep breath, “Jesus I trust you totally” exhale deep breath and try to feel the presence of God all around us. Not that I feel that I actually DO love and trust Jesus TOTALLY – this is hard to do. But it helps me to move in that direction. By the time we got to church, I was feeling pretty peaceful and ready to worship. We made our way to our seats near the back where it is most comfortable for my mom. We went around the outside of the rows of chairs which followed a wall. Mom went in first, then dad, then me on the end. I put my purse down and noticed a picture on the wall right next to me. I saw the words first, “Jesus, I Trust In You”. It was a large picture of the Divine Mercy. Interesting, I thought, and laughed a little to myself. I felt it was an affirmation to my prayer.

I Found God today in a positive reminder to trust more in Him.
