Who Do You Trust?

This morning finds me sitting on the harbor enjoying the cool morning air. We will be on vacation for another week and are spending time resting and relaxing on our son’s boat. So, for the next days’ my blog may be inconsistent, but you are always in my morning prayers.

“Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray over my many friends on facebook. Some are experiencing great pain and sorrow in their lives, others are facing some of the greatest financial challenges ever, still others are seeing those they love hurt and realtionships destroyed. There are those who need to make right decisions, decisions of life and death, and those who need physical protection from very real enemies. Yes, Father and there are those who have waited years to see answers to prayer who are growing weary – it is for all of these that I am praying this morning.

Let your peace rule in their lives; let them know your presence, protection and provision. Let them see that you are here and have promised to never leave them or forsake them; let them rest and trust in you.

Thank you for your answers; your word; your great love and thank you that it’s not you who has created these problems but that you are the problem solver. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer, in Jesus name.”

This prayer for you was prompted from my reading from Psalms this morning. It’s amazing how something written thousands of years ago can be so contemporary.

“ Hallelujah!
    O my soul, praise God!
All my life long I’ll praise God,
    singing songs to my God as long as I live.

^3-9 Don’t put your life in the hands of experts
    who know nothing of life, of salvation life.
Mere humans don’t have what it takes;
    when they die, their projects die with them.
Instead, get help from the God of Jacob,
    put your hope in God and know real blessing!
God made sky and soil,
    sea and all the fish in it.
He always does what he says—
    he defends the wronged,
    he feeds the hungry.
God frees prisoners—
    he gives sight to the blind,
    he lifts up the fallen.
God loves good people, protects strangers,
    takes the side of orphans and widows,
    but makes short work of the wicked.

¹⁰ God’s in charge—always.
    Zion’s God is God for good!
    Hallelujah!” Psalm 146 MSG

In God we trust – He is always in charge!!
