Trusting God....or things?

Do we really trust God, or the things and people around us?  

But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.  If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. (James 1:4-5)

There are so many advice columns, self-help books, and lifestyle plans out today that it can get very confusing. Do this to lose weight . . . do that to rid yourself of pain . . . even students are overwhelmed with "easy" scholarship offers for college! Hey . . . just take one gummie a day and see the change in your life! Everyone has the answer to every problem yet we are still left frustrated and searching! 

There is really only one answer . . . trust God, not things! After all, He made us and should know what we need, how much and when. We must get connected and remain connected (John 15:5) for any self-help to occur. For my self to get better I need to be in tune with the One who made my self!
