Can He trust ME?

Today's Morning Sonshine I'm stealing from my dear friend Raluca. She wrote this back in April, but I thought it was so good, I wanted to share it with all of you. It was a blessing to me. She begins:

I have been asking myself lately: 

How much can He trust me?

Can He trust me enough to pour out His blessings upon me knowing that I will not keep them for myself, but pass them on to others?

Can He trust me enough as to send me trials and obstacles knowing that I will not complain, but face them with a joyful heart since, "our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory…” (2 Cor. 4:17)

Can He trust me to give me the spirit of earnest prayer knowing that I will stand in the gap for others and I will be the intercessor that they need?

Can He trust me that much as to allow me to serve and represent Him to other people?

Can He trust me to use me to change lives knowing that I will not take the glory to myself, that I will not become proud, but I will remain humble and give all the glory and honor to Him?

Can He trust me to allow me to be single, knowing that I will not complain about it, but use my singleness for His glory?

Or can He trust me that much as to give me a relationship knowing that I will put Him and not the other person on the first place in my life, that I will help him grow and become more like Him?

So, how much can He trust me? 

I know that He is willing and waiting to pour out His blessings on me. He wants to use me. He has prepared for me things that “eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man.” 
(1 Cor. 2:9) 

But really, can He trust me that much?

I know that He cannot trust me. He has no reason to. 
But I also know that He can trust His Son, Jesus. 
And as long as I abide in Him and His words abide in me, 

He is going to trust me, too.
