Trust

Yesterday was one of those days where I looked back over my life and realized what a huge and powerful gift I have been given by being trusted by people all around me.

Over the years, many people have entrusted me with cleaning their homes and not stealing anything. I have been given keys to their homes, security codes, and numerous other things that they would never share with just anyone.

I've also been entrusted with the care of their children and not harming them in any way. I am trusted to be left alone with my friend's husbands and not get "too friendly" with them. I have been entrusted with the teaching of the bible to small children in a sunday school class and not teach them lies.

People have simply trusted me with everything that matters to them in this world. So, how do you get in such a position that people see you as someone they can trust? You live a life of honesty at all times. News gets around about what kind of person you are and what you do when you're "not in church". Nothing is more believable to another person than consistency in being real. Being different around different kinds of people doesn't help anyone in the long run. You have to stand for something. I choose to stand for The Lord!
