Reckless Abandonment

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT) Trusting God is quite different from trusting man. God is totally reliable and absolutely capable of whatever He choses to do. He is also completely right, just, moral, and good. To put my trust in One of such character is sensible, logical, and practical. Since the heart implies something within us, our core, our minds must reflect upon the nature and character of God, our emotions must rest upon the constancy of God, and our wills must submit to the faithfulness and wisdom of God. This is reckless abandonment to the absolute sovereignty of the almighty, all wise, ever present God. This is the only kind of abandonment that makes sense. In such yieldedness our understanding does not become the measure but our trust in the Person of God does. He is utterly trustworthy and able.
