A five letter word that means the world. Without trust we have nothing. Friendships and relationships mean nothing.  The military relies on trust everyday for every mission and so do our kids. Our kids trust us to do what is right by them, they trust that we will take care of them and they trust that we will love them unconditionally.

Trust comes from so many different ways, hugs, messages from friends/family and yourself. We have to trust that what we are doing will keep our kids safe and out of harms way. I remember asking my dad how he described faith and he said very easily “sometimes you have to trust that the bridge will be there!” And for the longest time, I didn’t understand, but tonight I am more in tune with that concept.

Last week, I found out that a friend who’s son was only one week old and would not make it through the week. I wrecked my brain, but I had to believe and trust that God was and is in control. I have to trust in something that I can’t touch, but hope and pray can heal a family. I have to trust that I can provide the right words of confront that will help or make the situation.  I have to trust that my actions and my friendship with them, will help be of comfort for their family in this time of need.

But no matter how i look on it, I have to trust that tomorrow is better because in knowing that my friend only got to hold his son for a few minutes before he died, is pretty crappy.
