“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8
As Christian’s, faith in God through Jesus is all about trust. Through the circumstances of our lives, we can trust Him to care for us. Relinquishing every aspect of our lives to His care and trusting that He always has our best interest at heart, is a sure path to lasting peace and victory. He has a plan and He knows what’s best for us. He’s never a day early or a minute too late. Although we may never know why certain things happen during our lifetime, we can trust that God’s plan is for our good and that He ALWAYS goes before us. He will never leave us alone.
Tis’ So Sweet to Trust in Jesus
“I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me till the end.
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him;
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for Grace to trust Him more!”
Louisa M. R. Stead, William J. Kirkpatrick
I Can Trust Him
The Perry’s
Every day I wake to find that God’s been faithful
In all the ways I knew that he would be
And I don’t know how some people live without him
Because I know what Jesus means to me
I can trust Him, I can trust Him
For my God’s at work in all things that I need
He is able and unchanging
He’s the hope that still surrounds me faithfully
I can trust Him
I have walked into a room so full of sorrow
And saw the desperate faces on the ground
And they looked at me through eyes so full of pity
But through joyous faith I sang these words out loud
I can trust him, I can trust him
For my God’s at work in all things that I need
He is able and unchanging
He’s the hope that still surrounds me faithfully
I can trust him
No storm he cannot weather
No sin he can’t undo
No sickness he can’t conquer
No mountain he can’t move
Jesus Jesus how I trust him
how I’ve proved him o’er and o’er
He is able and unchanging
He’s the hope that still surrounds me faithfully
I can trust him
I can trust him
Prayer: Heavenly Father, through Your Word and through the many promises found therein, we have learned to trust Thee. Thank you God for teaching us that it’s much easier to get through this life if we are trusting in You. Today, we ask You to simply empower our spirits with a new passion for the lost. Lead us to them. Put them in our paths, I pray. As we trust the Holy Spirit to give us those unexpected and uplifting divine appointments, please prepare us to serve You with all that is within. These things I pray in the matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Amen.
I love the Perry’s, but I don’t remember that song before. Now I have to find it! I love the words. Thank you.
