Many are the torments of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds those who trust in the Lord. Psalm 32:10.

Here the psalmist contrasts the wicked and the righteous. The wicked trust in themselves; the righteous person trusts the Lord, and is dependent on him. Happy people are trustful people.

'In the morning, when I wake, I say
"I place my hand in God's today",
With faith and trust that by my side
he'll walk with me, my steps to guide.
He leads me with the tenderest care,
When paths are dark, and I despair.
No need for me to understand,
If I but hold fast to his hand -
My hand in his; no surer way
To walk in safety through each day.
By his great bounty I am fed,
Warmed by his love and comforted.
When at day's end I seek my rest,
And realise how much I'm blessed,
My thanks pour out to him, and then
I place my hand in God's again. (Source unknown).

I am trusting you, Lord Jesus, trusting only you. I am so glad you are trustworthy. Amen.
