Go All In-He Did! We can trust God

We are trained not to trust. Our world teaches us to diversify our investments because we can't trust any single investment. We learn from our world that we cannot trust our government, our employers, our employees, even our spouses. We are trained to diversify our trust, put a little bit of trust in a lot of different places so we won't lose everything when the object of our trust lets us down.
As we come to our relationship with God, we tend to want to add God to our portfolio of things to trust. Often without even realizing the fact, we have been trained to hold back on trusting God, to be careful about going all in with the Lord . We are afraid to place the Lord first in our lives because we often fear God will take away the other things in our portfolio. If we put all of our trust in God and we are let down, where do we go?
We can trust God!! Our Lord will never leave us or forsake us. In the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prayed... My Father, if it is possible let this cup pass from Me; yet not My will, but Your will be done. Matthew 26:39
This cup, the Scriptures often refer to this as a symbol for God's divine wrath, God's wrath against sin was going to be poured out on Jesus Christ. He knew it, He choose it! I believe Jesus was not praying to avoid physical death, He came to die. He was not praying to avoid the cross, not to avoid becoming sin, not even to avoid separation from God which would be the given result. I believe Christ was praying not to avoid dying, but to overcome death itself; so that after He died He would be victorious over death's hold on Him. Let this cup (of divine wrath) pass from Me, but not My will but Your will be done, Father. Even as He prepared to face God's divine wrath for my sin and yours, the punishment we deserved, He was willing to go all in for us and take the cup, whatever the result.
There is One we can trust over all, Jesus Christ! He paid for our trust, surrender to Him this day. As we place our portfolio of people and stuff at His feet, He will meet every need, He died to prove it.
