About Me

We are not perfect, but we have been saved by the one who is. He did it by grace alone, through faith alone, on the basis of Christ alone, for the glory of God alone, revealed infallibly by the Scripture alone.

Trust

Lately the Lord has really been working me over in the area of trust. I have found my thoughts often taken and challenged with the question of who or what my trust is in. What are the things that I maybe even unintentionally found myself clinging to other then the Holy. And the revelation has been startling. How often do I trust in my own understanding, my own way of doing things, my family, politics, etc. I have easily taken what I can see and feel and clung to it. I wonder how many of you would say the same, that Christ, His Word, His commands have become secondary to the pressures and pulls of this world. I hope that this scripture gives you some encouragement to take stock of your soul today and see where you may be off and then work hard to train and discipline your mind to think well on the Gospel.

Psalm 40:1-5-I waited patiently for the Lord and He inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon the rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord. BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO MAKE THE LORD HIS TRUST, WHO DOES NOT TURN TO THE PROUD, TO HOSE WHO GO ASTRAY AFTER A LIE! You have multiplied, O Lord my God, your wondrous deeds toward us, no can compare with you!!`

This is such an encouragement, though it may take time, and though we will have to wait patiently on Him, He will come, He will hear and He will respond to us. May our trust not be in those things that are fading, those things that fill for a moment and then are gone, but today may we train our minds to trust that the Lord is good and does good, and if you have not may you trust Him with your lives and may your confess with your mouth and believe in your heart and may you be saved.

HE IS GOOD AND HE IS FAITHFUL-

LOVE GOD LOVE PEOPLE
