I finally understand this scripture :Though He slay (strike down, allow destruction ) me, yet I will trust Him”

God allowed my best friend and love (ex-husband) to be taken from me. God then became my best friend and provided me with the greatest love of my life – Himself!

Though he slay me, yet I will trust him.


He allows people who said they love me, make fun of me behind my back as I became a Christian. He brought new people into my life who love me unconditionally and accept my passion for Christ.


Though he slay me, yet I will trust him.


He took me from a life where I had an abundance of “stuff” to a life where I live check to check. In this place, I get to see Him glorified every time He comes through to provide what I need.


Though he slay me, yet I will trust him.


He took my dreams and goals of what I wanted to accomplish in life and said DENIED! Then showed me what His will was for me to be. Now, I finally experienced doing what I love instead of just having a job.


Though he slay me, yet I will trust him.


If I didn’t have a relationship with Christ, I would say (and I’m sure many worldly people would agree) that God is unjust. I could question, why bad things happen to good people. I could want revenge against those who have hurt me. I could be bitter, spiteful and miserable for the rest of my life. I could carry hatred to my death bed. However, when I learned the love of God I learned compassion beyond what I could have ever given anyone before. I learned to hate the sin, not the sinner. I learned to pray for those who come against me and hurt me. I learned to forgive and really mean it. I learned to leave my cares, worry, sorrow, anger, pain and foolishness at the cross. I learned to take Gods yoke upon me and live in the peace he offers. I learned that it is so not about me. It’s about Him. It’s about praising Him. It’s about being in His will for my life. It is about trusting that He knows best.


If He never gives me another chance at love, I will still trust Him, love Him and Praise Him.


If He never gives me the children I have seen in my heart, I will still trust Him, love Him and Praise Him.


If the people I love still talk about me behind my back, I will still trust Him, love Him and Praise Him.


If I live check to check the rest of my life, I will still trust Him, love Him and Praise Him.


If I loose all that I have left, I will still trust Him, love Him and Praise Him.


I was wounded and suffered severely, but I will still trust Him, love Him and Praise Him.

All my life and love plans were destroyed, and I looked like a total failure, but I still say “your will Father, not mine”


I have been humiliated and been told of the people who smile at me as they are twisting the daggers in my back deeper. I pray for them and love them still.


I have been down to $20 with no idea what would come next, but I believed and saw Him provide my every need.


I have had no food in my home, but He provided an invitation from someone to eat with them.


In between each glory, God takes me through things that make me feel like I am going to die. A piercing so intense that I feel I’m being cut off from Him, but I know he is just pruning away the nonsense in my life.


Though he slay me, yet I will trust him.


God I am broke - but I will still trust you, love you and praise you!


God my heart was destroyed - but I will still trust you, love you and praise you!


God I don’t know what is going to happen but I will still trust you, love you and praise you!


God I am determined to get so stubborn in your word that I am going to laugh in the face of adversary. I am going to keep praising You and building our relationship. God, I am going to stand so strong in your word, not even all of hell coming against me at once will make me move and inch. I am going to stay so safe in your loving arms. I trust that you are going to bring me out of anything you allow me to go through. God, I won’t flinch, I won’t break and I won’t retaliate against anyone, because I know the battle is not mine, it is yours, and you have already overcome! I trust your ways are greater than mine, and that you have plans to prosper and not harm me. I believe that I am the apple of your eye. I believe you, everything you say and show me, I believe. You are not a man that you should lie, nor the son of man that you should change your mind. No matter how bad the situation gets, Lord I will never question your sovereignty. I know it is not my place to worry about things or try to work out the trials I face. I know you don’t want me sweating things out, you want me to enjoy life and watch you work.


God - I have done some things that you don’t like, but I know you died to erase all of that and you won’t ever throw it in my face.


God – you have done things that I don’t like but I still love you and call you my Lord.


God – you could have brought my husband back, my money back and my old life back, but I know that YOU KNOW what and who is best for me and I can thank you for taking me from a life that was never intended for me.


God at times when I thought you were going to give me something I felt I deserved, you said no and didn’t say why, but I still love you and call you my everything.


God sometimes I want something and feel I should have it but can’t afford it, then I see someone not living to serve you, get it. I still love you and call you my Lord and thank you for what you give me and also for the things you don't let me have!


God I know you have the power to fix all my problems, but you don’t. I still love you and trust that you know what is best for me.


If I don’t’ ever get the money I need, the husband I want, the child I see in my life, God I will still call you my bet friend and love and praise you.


I won’t use you to manipulate situations to get what I want. I love you just because you deserve it. I won’t do good in my life just because I think you are going to bless me if I do. This is not a give and take relationship. You made me to love you and worship you and that is all I want to do and the only reason I want to do it. Lord please cleanse my heart if there is anything in me that will lift a finger to do a deed that is pleasing to my flesh only and not in your will for my life. Lord convict me of the thoughts to do that which does not glorify you.
