Trusting in the Lord

What is God prompting you to do, to say, to minister to someone, to trust Him with?  For us, it is not only this business, it is everything. God has called us to trust Him with everything, literally. It’s not just some spiritual concept. It’s real and as we are living, it requires real faith and not just talk.
