My Neices!

I Need You...

"God I need you

I need you now

I need you presence

This very hour"

"God I need you

I need your strength

To sustain me

In your arms"

"But you oh LORD,

Are my shield

And my glory

And the lifter of my head"

Yesterday I was reading in the Psalms and I thought it so amazing at how much David talks about "trusting God". So often i find myself trusting myself with my problems and sometimes even trusting others to give me the answers that I need, and the result of both of those is confusion, anxiety and yes even depression. I've experienced the whole nine yards and yet I will admit I still haven't learned my lesson...:) I do know that to mistrust God is -yes I'll call it sin- after all that He has done for us, after all the love and mercy and grace He's given us and we still don't trust Him must totally break His heart. Especially when we trust others or ourselves instead, when we put out trust in earthly things/people we are telling God we are better and bigger then He is. What a slap in His face....you know in all reality that attitude is the same attitude Lucifer had....he thought he was better than God and when we do not put our full trust in Him that is EXACTLY what we are saying! Oh, as I right this I will say that I have a lot of repenting to do in this area myself. God is such a loving Father, you read through the psalms and the pages are full of His faithfulness. He has done nothing to lose our trust.
"But let those that put their TRUST in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield." Psalm 5:11-12
