Trust in Him

I've purposefully set out to learn a memory verse each week, with the intention of getting a bit more into God's word. Sometimes the verse finds me and sometimes I go hunting a verse.
This week's: I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13.  
Everything so simply explained. Just do this simple thing; trust in him, and everything will be alright. Maybe things will be messy; maybe things will be frustrating; you might be exhausted - but everything will be alright. And hope comes. Hope is a marvellous thing that anchors us to the safe place, and in the safe one.
So this is what I think trust can look like. Who wouldn't want a bit of this!? Pandora says "I'm just going to shut my eyes for a little while and nestle in to the warmth."  So again this week, I've given back to God some of the things I've struggled to carry myself, and hope has risen again!
And this camellia in my garden. A total of 2 on the bush, but maybe dozens or even hundreds next year.
