But I Trust in the Lord

September 5, 2019 /

A couple mornings ago, in my personal devotions, the following verse stood out to me…

“But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.” Philippians 2:24

The part that caught my attention was the first six words – “But I trust in the Lord…” This evening, in whatever situation the Lord has allowed in our lives, are we able to say, “But I trust in the Lord…”?

That same morning, the “Proverbs for the day” contained the very familiar, often quoted verses…

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Proverbs 3:5,6

Although the above verses are often quoted, I wonder if they are often practiced. This evening, are we trusting in the Lord?

“We cannot always trace God’s hand, but we can always trust God’s heart.” ~ C.H. Spurgeon
