Trust His Word

When I was young I enjoyed being tossed into the air by my Dad or one of my uncles, I knew they would catch me.  Unless we were in the water- then they just let me drop:)  But besides that, I had a sense of security, I knew I was safe and they would never let any harm come to me.

God created the earth, the heavens, and every living being.  He controls everything and is never unaware of what goes on.  So why do I doubt the Savior of my life, the one who put everything on the line: His place in Heaven to come as a man to earth, His self-respect as He humbled Himself in front of those who mocked and hated Him, He gave His very life for me!  So why do I still hesitate in trusting Him in the small and large situations that arise in my life?

Last night during the evening service at my church the congregation sang this song, I really felt like the words were speaking right to my heart, so I wanted to share it.
No matter what the situation, no matter what thoughts may plague me with doubt- my life belongs to my King, He will never fail me, He always walks beside me, and when Satan tries to get under the hedge with deceit and lies, my faith can always draw strength from His word.

"Jesus made each star in heaven; He created earth and sea;
He's the keeper of all knowledge, What is past and what will be.
Yet He offers His great wisdom, so you will not lose your way.
Like a lamp it glows; every step it shows.
You know His will each day.

Trust His Word! Trust His Word!
All God's promises are true.  Trust His Word!
When your pathway disappears, when your joy gives way to tears,
When you're plagued with doubts and fears, Trust His Word!

He is not a distant stranger, He can be your closest friend.
And He'll always listen closely when you share your heart with Him.
Jesus walks the path beside you; He has been there all along.
And He'll guide your feet when your step is weak,
And your strength is almost gone.

Trust His Word! Trust His Word!
All God's promises are true!  Trust His Word!
When your pathway disappears, when your joy gives way to tears,
When you're plagued with doubts and fears, Trust His Word!
