I WILL TRUST. . .

March 14

Psalms 119:86 All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.

Often following God’s will and God’s Word leads to receiving harassments, from friends, persecutions from authorities, or even just to bad blood between relatives. When these things continue for a long time and seem to have no resolve, we are then tempted to wonder if God is really with us, helping us and protecting us as He should. Sad to say, there are even cases when people end up blaming God for the troubles that are caused by devil inspired men.

But now I will say:

In spite of the lion’s teeth, you are faithful;
In spite of the calumny, you are faithful;
In spite of the lying tongue, you are faithful;
In spite of the penury, you are faithful.

In spite of the heavy load, you are faithful;
In spite of the injury, you are faithful;
In spite of the poor abode, you are faithful;
In spite of the devil’s glee, you are faithful.

I am so confident of God’s love and purpose for our lives, that I am persuaded that whatever He does, and/or allows to happen to us, is for a good purpose, designed for our eventual good, and for the fulfilling of His perfect will.

May God help us to understand the roads He takes us through and all its bad weather, pot holes, flat tires, dangerous curves, blind bends, and careless drivers with the eyes and understanding of His spirit.

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
