Devotion:
Read Psalm 143:5-8.
Trust God. Put your life in His hands. Not easy to trust? Maybe not, but neither is it as difficult as you might think. Try these ideas:
Trust your faith and not your feelings. You don’t feel spiritual every day? Of course you don’t but your feelings have no impact on God’s presence. On the days you don’t feel close to God, trust your faith and not your feelings.
See yourself through God’s eyes, not your own. There are times that we can be hard to help and hard to love. In those seasons remember this simple fact: God loves you. Read that again: God loves you . . . let it sink in. You are His family, and He is working on your behalf.
See the big picture, not the small. Perhaps things are not going well. Remember, God has a plan, and you can trust his love and His work in your life.
One way to strengthen your trust in God is to remember the times in the past when God proved trustworthy.
Personal Worship Option:
Reflect on God’s work in your life over the past. Share one way that God has been faithful and trustworthy in your life with someone today.
