This song brings to mind an image of me on a tree swing, with God taking care of everything in my life. Have you ever imagined yourself on a tree swing? You can’t move forward unless someone pushes you. I believe wisdom begins with trust—trusting Him, our everything. God loved us so deeply that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus.
Imagine yourself as a child, playing on a tree swing. You feel no fear because you trust the one pushing you to keep you safe. But as we grow up, we start relying on ourselves. We push on our own, no longer needing anyone. We calculate every move—what if I fail? Doubt creeps in, and our mind tells us to stop. But as children, the one who pushes us knows our limits and protects us every step of the way.
Psalms 46:10 (NLT) "Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world."
Let our hearts grow to be like those of children. Because unless we become like them, we cannot truly trust Him or extend our trust to others.
"God, we pray today. Your Word says, "Be still and calm." Shape us daily into that truth. Unless we become like children, we cannot fully see, trust, or love You. We know one thing—we need You far more than our minds can comprehend. You are our peace, our everything. Your Son, Jesus, is our grace every day. Let our roots be built on becoming like Him. He is our "Efooytaa"
Thank You, Lord. Build our hearts daily to trust like a child on a tree swing not like an adult trying to control everything. Help us to trust fully in You and live that lifestyle. We believe that You hear the prayers of a child who calls upon Your name. Let this song be life-giving to us. Please, God, help us grow in this trust.
All the glory belongs to You alone! We pray in Jesus’ name." Amen
