		<description>hi Kat,

You are doing great to trust in our loving Father. Continue praying coz prayers move things and people. Pray for more love, joy and unity in the family and things will work out great. God watches us every minute so nothing is too small to Him. Hope to hear more testimonies of His goodness. Take care and may the Joy of the Lord be your strength.

		<description>\&quot;You and me Lord\&quot;, is how my leap started. Slowly, day by day as I packed my parents\&#039; home of 30 yrs. My dad\&#039;s heart attack brought me to this moment. It was neccesary for me to quit my job and become my parent\&#039;s care taker and parent. (The hardest job any child will face). I look back with wonderment at the Power of The Lord. Total trust, childlike belief and we got through it. I THANK THE MANY  ANGELS  that He sent me and I strive to assist those that are on this same journey also.
P.S. He also brought me to a new job the best I ever had.</description>

		<description>At the moment, I am in the process of putting all mt trust in the Lord to helpin my personal relationship. I know it may sound small &amp; unworthy to some people but the man I love with all my heart is having what I believe to be a mental &amp; emotional meltdown. The only thing I cn do now is to leap off this ledge &amp; trust that the Lord God will show me the way...</description>

		<description>What is the hardest “leap of faith” you have had to make?

My personal hardest &quot;leap of faith&quot; was when I was called to quit my job and serve full time in church. It was really a tough decision because of the financial commitment that I had. Besides supporting myself, I also have to support my family. The pay that the church gave was not enough at all when I did the calculation. After much struggles, I obeyed God and worked full time in the church. Amazingly, God did the miracles for me month after month. Whenever I needed to pay my bills, I will withdraw from my pay and amazingly, it was always enough. I had no lack at all every month. That really amazes me even till now. 

How can Jesus’ example of trusting Abba Father help us?

Jesus must have trusted Abba Father a lot when He came down on earth to die for our sins.  His love for Abba Father and Abba Father’s love for him enables him to trust. As we think of how God will send down His only son to come on earth to die for our sins, we know that we can trust in God to help us all the time. His unfailing love will not fail us. He always listens to us. He is always here for us.

What are some other examples of a child trusting a parent that remind you of Jesus trusting his Father?

One example can be when a child  first learns to walk.  Child trusted a parent to hold on to his or her hands and not let him or her fall when he or she takes the first step to walk. Another example is when a child learning how to ride a bicycle. A child trusted a parent to hold on to his or her bicycle till he or she is able to balance and ride on.</description>
