Psalm 25:1 In You, LORD, I put my trust.
Sometimes the Psalms just really connect, I just really FEEL them. I think it is the constant up and down of emotion, one Psalm praising and the next one raging (or begging). That constant roller coaster of emotions I absolutely understand. But through it all, the ups and downs, the highs and lows, I put my trust in God. Always.
Psalm 25:3 No one who hoped in You will ever be put to shame….
I put my trust in God because, by doing so, I will never be put to shame. If my trust is in Him, that means I am seeking Him, leaning into Him, learning more of Him. Always. That doesn’t mean He makes sure I get my way. It means I seek to become more like Him, to trust Him more and more each day.
Psalm 25:4-5 Show me Your ways, LORD, teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long.
Lord, Thank You for this day and this scripture. Thank You for the the trust that I have in You. Help me, every day, to draw closer, to love more strongly, to be more compassionate and more merciful. Help me to be more like You every day, Lord. Draw me closer. Amen.
Psalm 25:20 Guard my life and rescue me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in You.
Have a blessed day.
