Thanks for your reply, Starts. I'm glad that you feel drawn to trust in God's word, but I would also caution, our own understanding of God's word is not what is key, but God's understanding, and to tune in to that, we need to connect directly to God through prayer and the holy spirit; through a relationship. That then becomes the prism through which to understand scripture from his perspective.

I guess I would encourage anyone to build a connection with God so that one trust more in God than simply God's word. The word is the doorway, but the room we must enter is that connection with God. When we rely on him, tangibly, in the course of our day to day lives, then the greater the sense of trust and security and peace we experience.

I trust that as things move forward, God will reveal to us more and more who he trusts, and what he wants done. With that expectation, we can move forward in optimism even if we recognize that we don't know all or everything.
