🌿 Week 20 — T: Trustworthy
🤝 Trusting the Hand That Leads
📖 Key Scripture
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
— Proverbs 3:5 (KJV)
🌟 Big Idea
I can trust God when I do not understand the path because I know the character of the One leading me.
🌿 Welcome to Week 20
Ladies, thank you for participating in last week’s study on S — Sovereign. We were reminded that God sees the whole picture even when we can see only one piece. Thank you also for taking time to read, reflect and respond as we continue growing in our knowledge of who God is.
This week, we take that truth one step further.
If God sees what I cannot see, can I trust Him when I do not understand what He is doing?
Our confidence does not come from knowing what will happen next. It comes from knowing who God is.
He is faithful in His character, true to His Word, wise in His ways and dependable in all He does.
God is Trustworthy.
🤝 Trusting the Hand That Leads
Imagine a child walking with her father along an unfamiliar path.
She does not know where the path leads or what lies around the next bend.
Yet she keeps walking.
Why?
Not because she knows the way.
She knows her father.
When the path becomes uncertain, she reaches for his hand. Her confidence is not in understanding the journey—it is in trusting the one leading her.
Our walk with God can be like that.
We may not understand His timing. We may not know what He is doing or where the next step will lead.
But we know His character.
He is faithful. He is wise. He is good. He is unchanging.
He is Trustworthy.
Perhaps today you do not need to see the entire road.
Perhaps you simply need to trust God with the next step.
“I don’t know the way, Lord, but I know You.”
🌿 Reflection Thought
Where am I asking God for an explanation when He may be asking me to trust Him?

💡 M — Meaning
Discover what the passages mean.
To say that God is Trustworthy means that He is completely dependable and worthy of our confidence.
God does not become trustworthy because everything happens the way we want.
He is trustworthy because of who He is.
His character does not change when our circumstances change.
His Word remains true when our feelings fluctuate.
His wisdom remains perfect when we cannot understand His ways.
Trust does not mean having all the answers.
Sometimes trust simply says:
“I do not understand, Lord, but I know You.”

❤️ P — Practice
Live out God’s truth.
👐 Release the Need to Know
Think about one situation you have been trying to understand, control or figure out.
You do not need to share the details with anyone.
Simply bring it honestly before God.
Instead of asking only:
“Lord, why?”
or
“Lord, what is going to happen?”
Begin also to pray:
“Lord, help me trust You while I wait.”
Then ask yourself:
What is the next faithful step I can take today?
You may not know what happens ten steps from now.
Trust God with this one.
💎 T — Treasure
Hold one truth close to your heart.
Choose one truth from this week’s study to carry with you.
💎 Truth to Treasure
“I don’t know the way, but I know the One leading me.”
You might also treasure:
- God is trustworthy.
- I can trust Him with what I cannot understand.
- God’s character does not change with my circumstances.
- I do not need the whole map to take the next faithful step.
- Or choose a truth of your own.
Write it down. Pray it. Return to it whenever uncertainty comes.
(Share the truth you are treasuring with another sister and let us know in your Combined Titus Team when you did.)
