Scripture of the Day
Psalm 56:3 (NKJV)
“Who Do You Trust”
Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in YOU.
---------------------------------------------------
The Merriam-Webster dictionary has three definitions for “afraid”
1. Filled with fear or apprehension
2. Filled with concern or regret over an unwanted situation
3. Having a dislike for something
The writer is not saying “IF” I am afraid, but “Whenever” I am afraid . . . I will trust in YOU (the LORD). This tells me that whenever and whatever I am afraid of . . . I will trust in the LORD! Sometimes we categorize what we will trust the LORD with. If it is something small . . . we can fix it! But we will trust the LORD with all the big stuff!
If I am concerned with a relationship, because I am afraid of getting hurt . . . I can just stop seeing them! It seems simple . . . right! I am afraid of getting hurt in a relationship, so the best thing to do is just walk away . . . but if we trust in the LORD “whenever” we are afraid . . . He will light our path! HE will tell us if we should stay or if we should go! Sometimes, we think we only have to trust HIM with the big stuff that comes from the doctor, bill collector, etc. We think that HE has equipped us to take care of the small ones! But with everything and everyone, we must trust in the LORD whenever we are filled with fear or apprehension! We must trust in the LORD whenever we are filled with concern or regret over all of our trials and tribulations! Even when we have a dislike for something and someone . . . we must trust in the LORD! Who do you trust!
Be Blessed In HIS Power!
