Today we begin our Journey in earnest is seeking to answer the question, “How can we learn to trust Him with our lives in every life situation and circumstance?”  Our series will begin with examining 2 Timothy 1:12.  In this passage of Scripture it gives us some of the keys to learning to trust and rely upon Jesus Christ in every aspect of our lives.  If I were to ask how we learn to trust someone the answer would include observing behavior, listening to conversations and word, and also evaluating motives behind the words and actions.  Once a person proved to be a person of integrity, a person of their word, fulfilling their promises then you you would begin to trust them and rely upon them as friends or trusted colleagues.  In the same way, we need to perceive with all our senses how Jesus works and interacts with people and life situations.  Second, we must listen to His words, and observe His behavior to determine if they are in alignment with one another.  Finally, we need to come to a correct understanding of His motives.  Once we do this then we can begin to trust Him.
