Learning to trust God is the journey we all embark on when we decide to be followers of Jesus. That journey takes us from a place where we want to be at the centre of our own lives and moves us toward the place where Jesus becomes our centre. This weekend we will look at the journey. We will look at our starting place as enemies of God, the destination with Jesus at the centre of our beings and how learning to be thankful moves us toward that centre.
