Trustworthy
The person whose help is the God of Jacob—
the person whose hope rests on the Lord their God—
is truly happy! ~ Psalm 146:5 (CEB)
I know the one in whom I trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until the day of his return. ~ 2 Timothy 1:12b (NLT)
KEY IDEA:
Put your trust in the Lord and enjoy confident living.
PRAYER:
Lord, I'm so thankful that you are worthy of my trust. You are trustworthy but that doesn't explain why I'm hell bent on doing things on my own. Help me relax and enjoy life, knowing that even though my situation is fragile you've got me covered. I'm going to live happily. Amen.
