A Trust That Does Not Break.
There is a difference between a new trust and a “resilient” trust. New trust is like a young sapling, easily shaken by the wind. But resilient trust is like an old oak tree—it has survived storms, seasons of drought, and heavy winds. In Day 18 of our His Nearness series, we celebrate the seasoned faith of those who have walked with God for a long time. This is a trust that knows God might not always change the storm, but He always carries us through it.
