Are you maintaining your life or trusting God with your life? To maintain means to preserve, perpetuate, and to continue. When you trust God with your life, He will preserve you, He will cause perpetual blessings to come upon you, and He will continue to deliver you in every area where you need deliverance. However, when you try to maintain your own life, you live your life trying to figure out what to do next. You worry about self preservation and you seek people rather than God to preserve you in your time of need. It's time to trust God totally and completely with every part of your life.
God has told us to trust Him. He said in Proverbs to trust Him and to lean NOT to our own understanding. He said in Psalms to trust Him when we are afraid. He also said that blessed is the man that makes the Lord his trust. The one thing that we must understand is what it means to trust.
Trust consists of confidence and reliance. It means to have a firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something. Do you firmly believe God? Are you totally relying on Him? Do you believe His Word is true? Do you believe that He is well able to do what He said He would do? Are you allowing Him and His Word to be your strength when you are weak? We have to trust God!
3 Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on Thee]: because he trusteth in Thee.
4 Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH [is] everlasting strength:
