TO THE BIBLE:
1 Corinthians 13:5-7 CEV
“Love isn’t selfish or quick tempered. It doesn’t keep a record of wrongs that others do. Love rejoices in the truth, but not in evil. Love is always supportive, loyal, hopeful, and trusting”
LET’S TALK
Years ago, just right after I said to someone once, “Trust is not just given to you; you earn it,” the Spirit of God interrupted me and said, “No, son, you’re wrong. You don’t earn trust; trust is a gift.” I was surprised because, before that time, I thought trust was earned. But here was God saying no man could earn trust. The Lord then guided me through the Scriptures, and I saw things I didn’t realize and came to the conclusion that trust was indeed a gift as He had taught me.
No man in himself deserves to be trusted, no matter how trustworthy he seems, not even your closest friends. If
you’re honest with yourself, you’ll discover that even you are not totally trustworthy. For example, there may have been times when you promised to pray for someone, help with homework, or show up for a friend, and you didn’t. What if that one’s life, for whom you were to pray, depended solely on your prayers at that time? But God, nevertheless, has chosen to trust you with the Gospel (2 Corinthians 5:18).
This is something that friends, classmates, teammates, co-workers, and spouses need to learn. In school, at home, and online, people don’t always “qualify” for your trust. You trust them because you love them and you expect the best of them. The man who can trust another is greater than the one he trusts, because trust helps him gain a level of faith to make provisions for the errors of others.Those who can’t trust others are men of small minds. When you begin to see life the way God sees it, you’ll stop judging people only by their mistakes; you’ll start learning to trust people and not rate them according to who they are and what they do (2 Corinthians 5:16), but according to your expectation of them. Learning to trust doesn’t mean being careless; it means choosing love, forgiveness, and faith over fear.

PRAY
Dear Father, I thank you for the grace to see people the way you see them. Thank you for your love that’s shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit and for the ability to trust people and not rate them according to who they are and what they do, but according to your love and purpose for their lives, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
