Confidently trust

Sort of continuing from yesterday, do you walk around in fear? I think we all do to some extent. I admit, I often wonder if we have prepared enough for college, if we have done enough to prepare our kids for the world, if we have done enough for retirement. Will retirement ever even be a possibility? I may not fear those things but I have caught myself dwelling on them.

Others of us may be almost paralyzed by fear, afraid to move forward because of the unknown. Hey, there are some scary things out there. We have no idea what may await us around the corner. What we do know, however, is that we serve the King of kings and the LORD of lords, and HE will be there before we get there.

Today's word is Psalm 112:7, NLT, which reads, "They (the righteous) do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the LORD to care for them."

If we try to live our lives in a manner that is pleasing to our SAVIOR, we have no need to fear this world or anything this world may bring. We can rest assured, confidently trust, that the LORD is going to take care of us, and He will. If we are following His leading, He will be with us and see us through whatever may arise.

Don't let fear paralyze you. Don't let fear keep you from doing that which GOD has called you to do. Don't let the "What ifs" become the "I won'ts". If we will try to honor Him and do our part, with GOD on our side, we can confidently trust.

Be Blessed,
