Trust ye in the LORD for ever:
for in the LORD JEHOVAH is
everlasting strength:
We
are often discouraged by the difficulties of the way, and cast down through the
weakness of our faith; we look to creatures, instead of looking to the Lord; and
reflect upon our weaknesses, instead of believing His promises, and trusting His
faithfulness.
But
the Lord our God should be the only and the constant object of our trust; His
word warrants us to look to Him for all we need, both temporal and spiritual; and
His character assures us that we cannot be disappointed.
He
will appear for us, and make all His goodness pass before us.
If
we connect prayer to God with trusting in God and waiting for God, it is impossible
that we should be left in trouble, or be neglected in distress.
We
may trust Him with the fullest confidence, and expect without doubting all He
has promised to bestow.
Are
you at this time tried, tempted, and distressed?
Casting
your burden upon the Lord.
Commit
your way unto Him; He will bring to pass His largest promises and your best
desires.
Seek
out His promises, confide in them, plead them with God, an expect their
accomplishment.
Oh,
trust in the Lord for ever!
Trust
Him, He's faithful to His word,
His
promise cannot fail;
He’ll
never leave you nor forsake,
Or
let your foes prevail;
Then
trust His word, expect His grace
Until
you see Him face to face.
James
Smith
