"Some trust in chariots and some in horses." Psalm 20:7
Some trust in their 401Ks, some trust in their beauty, some trust in their talents, some trust in the military, some trust in their political party…
"But we will remember the name of the Lord our God…they have bowed down and fallen, but we have risen and stand up right." Psalm 20:8
Sometimes life makes you feel like you can’t stand up right. Betrayal of a friend or coworker, sickness, grief, economic predictions of doom…whatever you may be facing…
I learned from a dear friend in Sudan, who said to me, "There are many things I could worry about, but I choose to trust God instead." So simple. It’s a choice—so hard when faced with the tragedies she faced. Do you desire to rise and stand upright? Remember to call on the name of the Lord our God.
One response to “Some Trust (guest devotional)”
Thanks for the pithy wisdom for these times.
Psalm 27:4 (King James Version)
One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
