Trust

It's so easy to trust in things that will let me down....money....friends....grades....family. Yet it's so difficult to convince my heart to fully trust the ONE who will never betray me. Here are some reminders the Lord has been giving me:

Delight yourself in the Lord
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him...
Psalm 37:4-7a

Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your hearts to him,
for God is our refuge.
Psalm 62:8

It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to trust in man.
Psalm 118:8

The Lord is good
a refuge in times of trouble.
he cares for those who trust in him.
Nahum 1:7

God is in control. His standard is the only one that matters. Only to Him must I give account of my decisions, actions, and thoughts.

You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in (relies on, has confidence in, leans on) You.
Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord, is the Rock eternal.
Isaiah 26:3-4
