__Letting go of control is hard--unless we hold on to something greater__ Living in a fallen world ensures that we all have trust issues on some level. Hard things happen. People wound us. Friends let us down. Without realizing it, our trust issues with people can become trust issues with God.  
  
In Embracing Trust, Joanna Weaver, bestselling author of Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, shares her own journey and invites you to a deeper trust in God. Through stories, Scripture, and an exploration of the life of David, you'll discover how to  
  
· cultivate a deeper, more meaningful friendship with Jesus   
· let go of things that keep you from fully trusting in God  
· build an unshakeable faith that stands firm in troubling times  
· leave a legacy of trust that blesses future generations  
  
If you struggle with disappointment from the past, frustration with the present, or fear of the future, Joanna invites you to relinquish control and put your trust in a forever-faithful Father. For as you embrace trust in God, you'll find yourself held by a Love that will never let you go.

She lives with her family in Hamilton, Montana.

Trusting God. It's such a cliché. Yet nothing means more to our heavenly Father than when we surrender our lives completely to him and choose to believe he has our best in mind. David modeled that kind of deliberate dependence: as a shepherd boy, as a man running for his life, as a king who made grave mistakes. In both triumph and failure, David looked to God rather than to himself.
