Trusting a cookbook

Trusting a cookbook

The Equity

I was looking through my cookbooks this week, sorting out which ones I can give to my granddaughter when I came to a recipe I wanted to try. I was right into it when a thought entered my mind. I have no clue who made up this recipe but here I am following their exact directions expecting that I will not be wasting my time and ingredients.

I stopped stirring for a few moments. It struck me that even though I don’t know the author I believe this will turn out.

It made me think about God. I don’t physically see Him either, yet everywhere around me I see evidence of His creating hand. I am filled with awe. I have called out to Him in my times of need and have had those needs met, for decades now. He tells me, in His word, to trust Him and that if I do I will do better than trying life on my own.

Life is hard and the future is a mystery. I trust in a lot of things every day without even thinking about it, why not God?
