reliance

25. What are you relying on?

Sometimes, we tend to overrely on ourselves, our abilities, actions, jobs, achievements, connections, or even wealth.

When what we rely on fails, we get lost, confused, overwhelmed, or even depressed.

It is prudent to work hard and take action. Nothing moves until we do.

But we must also learn to rely on God, especially on things we can’t control like results and the fruits of our labor. Trusting in God means relying on Him Who is steady and constant.

When we’re overwhelmed, it’s good to pause and think about the things we rely on.
