Good Morning Everyone,
Our theme for this month: “Trusting God”
Our Bible verse for today: “Where will my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:1-2 (HCSB)
Our thought for today: “God is the One who can be truly trusted.”
Who or what do you really trust in? Who or what do you look to for security, protection, provision, and happiness? If you’re a Christian then you probably immediately answered “I put my trust in God.” Ok, nice answer. That’s certainly the “Christian” thing to say.
But is it true? Do you really mean it? In actual day-to-day living are you trusting in God alone, or maybe are you trusting in God and in your good job. Or are you trusting God and your good looks, or God and your intelligence, or God and your guns, or … well, you get the idea.
Psalm 121 is probably one of the greatest declarations in the Bible of truly trusting fully and completely in God alone. I think it would be appropriate to simply quote the entire Psalm:
“I lift my eyes toward the mountains. Where will my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.
Indeed, the Protector of Israel does not slumber or sleep.
The Lord protects you; the Lord is a shelter right by your side.
The sun will not strike you by day or the moon by night.
The Lord will protect you from all harm; He will protect your life.
The Lord will protect your coming and going both now and forever.”
Amen.
God Bless,
