DO YOU TRUST GOD?

There was a Seinfeld episode where Kramer scoots into Jerry’s apartment where Jerry and George are talking, and he says "Do you guys want to have some fun!" George and Jerry say "Sure." And then Kramer says "Do you really want to have some fun? Or are you just saying you want to have some fun?" And George says "I really want to have some fun." And Jerry says "I was just saying I want to have some fun."

So the question is Do you trust God? Or are you just saying you trust God?

If you trust God, you’ll do what he says, no matter how foolish or impossible it seems - and leave the results to him.

If you’re just saying that you trust God, you’ll spend your resources on yourself, you’ll hold on to whatever amount will help you find security, you’ll do things YOUR way.
