Fear of Trust: Why I Struggled to Trust God After Loss

Dec 31, 2024    Cathy Jones, Angel Escudero

Trust is a complex journey, especially when it comes to relationships and faith. In this episode, we dive deep into the question: how do you come to a place of trusting someone? For me, it has been a rollercoaster of emotions, shaped by experiences of loss and the struggle to trust God. I share my personal story of how I learned to trust again after facing heartbreak and fear. The truth is, trusting someone, whether it's a friend, family member, or even God, often requires us to confront our fears and past traumas. I discuss the challenges I faced in trusting God after experiencing a miscarriage and the fear that followed with the birth of my children. It was a journey filled with uncertainty, anger, and ultimately, surrender. I realized that at the core of my mistrust was fear of being hurt again, losing control, and fear of the unknown. But through this journey, I discovered that true trust comes from a place of love and surrender. I learned that I needed to let go of my fears and allow God to take control of my life.
