A New Day To Trust

John Tilton

Scripture

Psalm 143:8

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.

Observation

I love the words of this scripture, which prompt and encourage me that each morning is a new day to remember God’s amazing love that He gave His only son Jesus Christ to give His life for mine. Furthermore, I am reminded that He will show me the way to go throughout the day, and therefore we can trust the Lord whereby we will not fret, for He has given us freedom in and througth Him.

Application

I can be a worrywart. I don’t know why but I got up early and started thinking of all of the potential challenges I may face and things that need to get done and accomplished. Of course this resulted in worry and getting caught up in a little stress. What this does is result in a lack of joy and peace, even as I embark on a wonderful week’s vacation. I can’t let worry get in the way of joy and peace this week. Thus, I will hold on to this scripture to remind me that God’s love is indeed unfailing, as He will show me the way that I may trust in Him.

Prayer

Dear Lord, indeed I pray that your unfailing love will continue to manifest itself in my life as you show me your way case by case, thereby allowing me to trust in you that I may have joy and peace no matter what arises. For you know the plans you have for me, plans to prosper and bless me. I turn to you.
