Trust in God

There are times, that we may feel trusting God when nothing seems to happen is difficult. But it is harder still to live with the consequences of taking matters into our own hands. Therefore, we should resist the temptation to think God has forgotten you. We need to have the patience and courage to wait for God to act.

Trust in the Lord, and do good;
dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.
Delight yourself in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday.

- Psalm 37:3-6 -
