WALKING IN GOD ’ S TRUST
W I L L I A M H E P F N E R
Over the years , people have been challenged in saying , “ I believe I could do so much more for the Kingdom , within my congregation , or with friends who are having troubles .” Then they add , “ If only I could get over my lack of bashfulness and increase my faith .” I have also heard others use this idea of doing more , but using the excuse that they encounter , a “ lack of selfconfidence ” or they rationalize , “ I am just not hearing from God .” When people start talking this way , they begin to doubt , and even begin to walk in fear . They begin speaking about how tough life is , questioning , “ God , why did you let that particular accident happen ?” Or , they ask other questions thus revealing the slipping trust , stating , “ God , if you are there , why didn ’ t you fix those awful things I was asking for you to do ?”
