Sometimes I am presented with words that I believe God sends me when He needs me to get hyper-focused and grounded when I am in a season of change. Through this time of major change, I have been presented with the words, Be Still, Curiosity, etc.
The word I was presented with recently is TRUST. As you all know I have had so many changes in my life recently that it has definitely been a test of my faith. I have had to dig deep and really unpack my beliefs. When I was in a place of comfort and security my faith was steady. Easy so to speak. I didn’t question much. But as my life has moved to a very unfamiliar, the signs are clear that my TRUST has been very much in the blessings of my outward world. The things I know. My routine, my surroundings. I could navigate all of that with confidence because I had mastered it. Now I’m in a place where I have no routine, (yet) everything is unfamiliar which affects my body, mind, and spirit. At least this is what has been my personal experience. I have had moments of bliss, 
but if I’m being totally transparent, the moments you don’t get to see are my fearful moments. The what-if moments. The doubtful, I can’t do this, I want to go back moments. Yep, the struggle is real when it comes to major life changes. Whether it’s becoming an empty nester, physical changes, marital challenges, career, moving to another country, etc…fill in your blank..we are brought back to our core and asked “Do you TRUST?” Like how I trust, when I look out the window every morning, I am met with the rising of the sun. 
The thing with spiritual tests there is no pass-fail. It is just a call for growth. Called to go deeper. So that the fruits that want to be born through you can be nurtured, watered, and grown. There are times I have resisted and today I surrender to it. TRUST…it feels much better when I’m allowing it because the one I put my TRUST in has always been, proven and is TRUSTWORTHY. The peace that has followed that TRUST is inexplicable. This season of change in my life has reminded me of this. Here we go!
