I Trust You... God

Have I ever mentioned that I love my husband? If I haven't (or even if I have), let me just say that I love my husband. He's a wonderful man. Hard-working, saved, sanctified and filled with the Holy Ghost, smart, handsome and all that great stuff. Amazing man. Really. Couldn't find another one like him even if I wanted to. Total package, that man of mine.
And even though he is amazing and awesome, no matter how great he is, he's still a flesh and blood human being. He's man. And men make mistakes.
He's done so many wonderful things, and he's done so many things wonderfully wrong. But who hasn't? I've made just as many mistakes as he has, if not more. We are both people and since people are of God, but not God, we aren't perfect.
Let me just stop beating around the bush. There are so many times in marriage when we have been disappointed and also been a disappointment. It happens. Finances, infidelity, careers, children and personal individuality... Mistakes all over the place on both sides and I don't need details. But I know it happens.  However, since you are still reading my blogs (thank you, by the way) that either means that you stayed with him or you are still thinking about the situations. No matter what your state of affairs, let this be my advice to you today:
Trust God.
It seems simple enough. We tend to make it a lot harder than it needs to be, most times.

Psalm 9:10
"Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O LORD, do not abandon those who search for you."
(NLT)
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, so he does not lie.
He is not human, so he does not change his mind.
Has he ever spoken and failed to act?
Has he ever promised and not carried it through?
(NLT)

Our Heavenly Father will never lead us down the wrong path. He always has had our best interest in mind and he always will. We have made a habit of treating God like we treat everyone else. Have you noticed that the outcome to every one of those situations has been pretty much the same? That's because God isn't a natural man, so He shouldn't be placed in the same category that we place any person, our husbands included.
I know that people have told you that your marriage is between you and your husband. Not true. God is most definitely in on it, whether you have invited Him in as a managing partner or not. He cares about everything to the most minute detail and He wants to have input. What concerns you, concerns the Father.
Your husband is under the head of house your household and that does deserve much respect. I guess I can correctly assume that you trust him, to some degree, or you wouldn't have married him. Even if he has done something foolish to make you rescind that trust even the smallest bit, you have the right to make the decision on whether you should stay with him or not. Look past the hurt. Look past the disrespect. Look past the infidelity. Look past the immaturity.
Let me give you one more verse to ponder while you're trying to do all of this looking past:
This is what the LORD says:
“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans,
who rely on human strength
and turn their hearts away from the LORD. They are like stunted shrubs in the desert,
with no hope for the future.
They will live in the barren wilderness,
in an uninhabited salty land. “But blessed are those who trust in the LORD
and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank,
with roots that reach deep into the water.
Such trees are not bothered by the heat
or worried by long months of drought.
Their leaves stay green,
and they never stop producing fruit. (Jeremiah 17:5-8 NLT)

Look at that! Do you need that type of drama in your life? Maybe you already see it and you desperately want it to change.

Then you need to desperately seek God.
If you only have trust in your husband in this or any situation, you're going to fail, because you weren't designed to trust in the creation; you were designed to trust in the Creator. I can't set my marriage up to fail if I haven't yet given it a chance to succeed. It will take time and it will be hard, but things will get better if you keep your eyes on Him and not him.
So while you're on your knees crying to God about how wrong his son (your husband) did you this time, lift your hands in worship and just say...
I trust you... God.
