This is the trusting ground.
Do I trust
You have
the best
intentions
for me?
Do I trust
Your ways
are higher than mine?
Perfectly designed?
Full of good?

I step onto
the trusting ground.
I can’t see ahead from here.
Not more than a few feet.
But there is
a million miles
up.

So I fix my eyes
there.
Where the cross stands
victorious.
Where Jesus reigns
in his unbound glory.
Where Holy Spirit
pours out comfort and joy.
Where God is enthroned
and all the worries of this world
can’t touch
His unshakeable kingdom.

And all of that victory,
all that glory,
all that comfort, joy,
goodness,
is falling down
on me
right where I am
if I just
stay
on this
trusting ground.
