Today's
scripture: Psalm 25:1-3
I mentioned a couple of days ago how I revisit my journals each time I start a new one, and I'm in that process right now. One constant theme has been how trustworthy God is.
As my journey has gone from the highest mountains to the lowest valleys, He has been with me. Protecting me. Providing for me. Blessing me. Comforting me.
As I write these words, I am convicted. I am so unworthy of His everlasting love and never-forsaking presence. Even when I have neglected Him or ignored Him, He has continued to be trustworthy.
I read the next words in today's scripture, and I pray along with the psalmist: "Let me not be ashamed." So often, I fail to share God's truth with others. I don't always seize those moments to tell of His love and grace. To my credit, it's not because I'm ashamed of God; rather, it's because I'm ashamed of my own inadequacies. "What if I say the wrong thing?" or "What will they think?"
My constant prayer should be—must be—to give the Lord all glory, honor, and praise. To joyfully and unashamedly share His truth with others. To surrender everything to Him.
For He is worthy of my trust.
