For this reason we affirm that there is a God who cares. We believe that | j beyond matter is mind, beyond] | multiplicity is purpose, beyond (power is a personal Being, be-1 1 yond the prison of cause and effect is redemptive love. We .believe with good reason that the fundamental truth about the nature of things is this: There is a God whose face we see in Jesus Christ—a God who cares. Standing on this founda-j tion, we trust in God. And, one of the benefits of , this trust in God is that it mo-1 tivates us to do our best in the midst of the worst. How much I ,we need such incentive today!' By trusting in God we can use j trouble creatively. This is what I Paul meant when, despite hard ship and persecution, he wrote: | “We rejoice in our sufferings, i I knowing that suffering produces J ! endurance, and endurance pro • dices character, and charade) I produces hope, and hope doer not disappoint us, because GodV love has been poured into our J hearts ...” (Romans 5:3-5). Sustained by trust in God, we can make a creative use of trou ble. If we lose this trust, life becomes too much for us.

He will hqsp us use hard ship and suffering for growth in wisdom, courage, righteousness and love. In such confidence we can live through any present without yielding to fear; we can face any future without sur rendering to despair. Jesus, on the cross, knew the peace born of a quiet, yet mighty trust in] God, And this peafee he be queathed to us, with his last living breath. Trust in God is not a blind stab- in the dark. It is an in terpretation of the universe and of human destiny which stands firmly on the rock of reason. It is validated by experience.
