DECEMBER 6 - When Trust Gets Real3-Year-Bible Reading: Proverbs 29:11–12; Psalm 139; Genesis 22:1–18; Hebrews 11:17–19//⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠3-Year Bible Devotional Book Available on Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠//________________________________________“A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.” — Proverbs 29:11“Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts!” — Psalm 139:23“By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac…considering that God was able even to raise him from the dead.” — Hebrews 11:17, 19________________________________________Ever had one of those moments when everything in you wanted to scream, "This doesn’t make sense!"—but you had to trust someone anyway? That’s kind of what Abraham faced in Genesis 22. God asked him to do something that seemed impossible and even cruel. Give up his son? Yet Abraham obeyed, believing somehow God would still keep His promise. That’s a level of trust most of us can’t even imagine. But what if faith like that isn't just for ancient heroes? What if God wants us to learn to trust Him that deeply—even when life is confusing or hard? It starts with knowing that God sees every part of us (like in Psalm 139) and teaches us to respond with wisdom and self-control (see Proverbs 29:11) instead of letting fear or frustration rule us.________________________________________THINK ABOUT IT1. Faith When It’s Hard: Abraham trusted God even when the command seemed crazy. What would it look like for you to trust God in a situation where you don’t understand what He’s doing?2. God Knows You Fully: Psalm 139 reminds us that God sees our thoughts, our fears, and our hearts. Do you believe that God understands what you're going through better than anyone else?3. Control vs. Chaos: Proverbs 29:11 talks about the difference between reacting emotionally and responding wisely. How can you practice pausing and praying before reacting in a tough moment?________________________________________BOTTOM LINEReal trust in God shows up when life doesn't make sense. He sees you, He knows your heart, and He's working even when you don't understand. Faith means choosing His way—even when it's hard.________________________________________PRAYERHeavenly Father, sometimes life feels confusing, and trusting You isn’t easy. Help me remember that You see me, know me, and love me. Teach me to trust You like Abraham did and to respond with faith, not fear. Shape my heart to follow You, even when the road isn’t clear. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
