Psalm 4:5

Psalm 4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,And put your trust in the LORD

We're supposed to trust God in everything, true? Psalm 4:5 tells us this, and countless times throughout the bible, God uses the word trust. In fact, if you look up the word "trust" on biblegateway.com (which by the way is an awesome site) you will find 181 verses in the New King James Version. 188 in the KJV. That should tell us something, right? And yet, so many times we worry. This is a huge thing for me, because I constantly worry about everything. If you look up that same verse, Psalm 4:5, in the Message, it says this: Complain if you must, but don't lash out, Keep your mouth shut, and let your heart do the talking. Build your case before God and wait for his verdict. So, really it just says that God is in control, which I hope all of us know.

I know that, without a doubt, but I still worry. So I can't tell you how to stop worrying completely, but I can tell you that memorizing that verse might help. Then whenever you start worrying or forget to trust God, just say that verse. (I'm really saying this to myself, but ya'll try it too.)So that was just something I was thinking about and I really wanted to update the blog. It seemed to fit, especially with economy the way it is, and Christmas coming up. And personally, trusting God is something I gotta work on. Anyway, thanks again for reading this. :)
