Trust/Faith (Principle # 5)
God does not require us to understand His will, just obey it, even if it seems unreasonable.
The enemy of our souls often tempts us in the same way he deceived the first man and woman; by suggesting that God can't be trusted and that our lives would be better if we went our own way. Taking the course that seems most logical and comfortable certainly makes sense to the rest of the world. But how can our own limited wisdom-what we think we know-compare to the perfect wisdom and foresight of our heavenly Father?
God's love is always trustworthy, even when the path He leads us on doesn't make sense right way. But when we put our faith in His goodness, we no longer have to understand everything he asks us to do. Instead, we can enjoy the peace that comes with full submission to His leading, and we can look forward to seeing all the great things He will accomplish.
