Trusting in God

I've been really convicted lately... of whether I truly trust in our Creator. I suppose it's easy to say you do, and even possible to believe/want to... but to act like you do... I don't know.

For me, uncertainty has always been a large part of my life... where I would be schooling, whether I'd ever be able to keep the friends that I made (no = P hehe)... I would often have very little knowledge of what the future held... and thus never had much stability. I suppose at one level, I've thus always longed for that foreknowledge, and yes despite how much I complain that my parents were Asian and all, I always did have that security and comfort in having them follow me (or me follow them) around the world.

Obviously this relates to coming to HK... without my family, but also I think my journey to this place shows how I'm growing as well... to no longer need to be in control of my life, constantly nagging God for answers, for His plan. I suppose this goes on from my last post... it comes down to trusting in God. Do I truly believe that he can supply all my needs according to his glorious riches in heaven? Do I truly believe that he will work all things for the good of those who love Him, those called according to his plans and purposes? Or that God is able to make all grace abound to me, so that in all things at all times, having all that I need, I will abound in every good work?

There are a lot of things that I need to trust God for... and I won't get into all of them here =D, I wonder if my faith will be enough... but I know that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
