12 Quotes About Trusting God

The Christian walk of faith is not without trials. Christians believe that God allows difficulties in the life of a believer for many purposes. As these great quotes about trusting God illustrate, Christians believe that they can walk with trust in God in spite of circumstances.

And as each of these quotes teaches, trusting God reaps many rewards both in this life and the life to come for the Christian believer. I hope you will be encouraged by these quotes in your walk with God.

Thomas Watson

Armin Gesswein

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to thoughtfully examine all of life and think for yourself.
