Trust

"Do you trust Me?" You ask.

You ask in the quiet, You ask aloud.

Amidst the raging storm You ask, and in the calm afterwards.

"Yes." I say.

Then take it back. Forever I am taking it back.

But You continue to ask.

"I've failed too much. You can't still be here. You can't still trust me?" I say in reply.

"But don't you get it? It's not about whether I trust you. It's Do you trust Me?"

"Even though I've failed You hundreds of times, even though I've hurt you even more... You still ask?"

My whole life. My whole existence has proved I don't. Not because You've failed me. But because it is impossible that You're still here... extending grace, loving more, asking me to trust again.

"Who are you, Lord?"

I am the One you can ALWAYS trust. From Alpha to Omega, I am here. Never will I leave you or forsake you. Never can you displease me enough. Never can you reject me enough. You are my beloved and you are Mine.
