Trust in the Lord not yourself!

Reading from the NLT Isaiah 50 v 10&11
V10"Who among you fears the Lord and  obeys his servent? If you are walking in darkness,with out a ray of light,trust in the Lord and rely on your God."
V11 "But, watch out,you who live in your own light and warm yourselves by your own fires.This is the reward you will receive from me:you will soon fall down in great torment."

I have to be truthful and say this was a hard few verses to swallow. We have been going though a dark time I must say God has given us enough light for each step for each day as we travel on. I will say though that at times (many times) I want to just give up on relying on our God and try to make my own "fire".  As God sends His servants to give us wisdom and help I don't always want to "take it on board" I am many times tired of waiting. God has seen fit at this time to have us rest and wait on Him. If  I will let Him and if I rely on Him, He will see me though. This bit of waiting on God is nothing compared to "falling into great torment"

May you rely on your God even when the path is dark and you can not see the end of the tunnel! Don't rely on yourself,but,on your Savior and the servants He sends along the way!   These times are for our benefit to become more Christ like.
I Thank my God for reminding me of this today !

Trust and obey chicks its the only way!
