Trust and obey – for there’s no other way

There’s an old hymn that says, “Trust and obey, for there’s no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.”

Simple words—but deeply true. The Bible is filled with people who discovered that victory doesn’t come from understanding every detail of God’s plan, but from trusting His heart and obeying His voice.

When Abraham was told to offer Isaac on Mount Moriah, it made no sense. God had promised that through Isaac a nation would come. Yet Abraham trusted and obeyed, and when his knife was lifted in faith, God stopped his hand and provided a ram in the thicket. What looked like the end became a beginning of blessing.
