Trust in the Lord
by Gil William Olmstead, Spiritual Director
Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV /
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge [Spirit], and [It] will make straight your paths.
Today I am grateful. Gratitude flows through and as my very being, for I know that my life is the Life of Spirit. This power that brings forth the stars and sea is the very power that is living Itself as me; living Itself as all of creation. Therefore, I do not pretend to understand all things, for I know that the vast possibilities of creation are beyond me. I simply know that Spirit is all source and supply. As I “know” this, I can leave the “how” of it to Spirit. My life, the life of Rio Grande, and all life is living in the middle of unfathomable supplies of Good. Ease, grace, abundance, joy, and revelation are expressing as the all Good in my life now. This community and I are showered with possibility at every turn. As I know this to be true, I stand in awe, giving great and abundant thanks that I get to be surprised each day with the ways in which all these things fill my life.
And with that I release this word knowing that it does not return to me void.
And so It is! Amen.
