Putting Our Trust in the Lord

Scripture Jeremiah 39:18 For I will surely deliver you, and you shall not fall by the sword; but your life shall be as a prize to you, because you have put your trust in Me,” says the LORD.’”

Observation: What a great saying that my life would be a prize for me. I never looked at it that way that my life is a prize since I put my trust in Him. I can see it now when I gave my life to Christ and put my trust in Him my life has been totally different. Where all I could think of was ending my life, God came and gave me a purpose and reason to cherish the life that He gave me. Before all I wanted was anybody’s life but mine, but now I don’t want to be any one else but me.

Application: To use this life that God has blessed me with to honor Him. To live the best, I can putting God first and look at my life as the gift God has given me. What is great about this prize that after my time here on this earth I get to have it for all of eternity with the giver of my gift.

Prayer Lord guide me through the remaining portion of this life that I will trust You with all of my heart and lean not on my own understanding put in all of my ways acknowledge You and that you will make my paths straight.
