How can I trust again

2024/08/18 | Leo Bigger

Leo Bigger explains how you can trust again: trust isn’t an automatic gift but a capacity you can rebuild through intentional leadership of your own life. Main idea: when trust is broken, you can restore it by practicing transparency, courageous decision-making, empathy, and steady consistency—modeled ultimately by Christ’s sacrificial love. (See Matthew 25:14–30 on growing what you’ve been given; 2 Timothy 1:7 about rejecting fear.)

Practical takeaway: start small—list three strengths and three weaknesses, apologize where needed, make one courageous choice this week, and show up for someone in crisis. Be transparent about limits, learn from mistakes, and keep a steady rhythm of improvement so others feel emotional safety.

Call to action: choose one area to change today (e.g., admit a weakness or visit someone hurting) and take that first step toward rebuilding trust.
