Have Faith in His Mercy

Scripture Psalms 36:5 Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

Observation: All throughout the Bible it tells of God’s great mercy and faithfulness. I read about it each day and in my own life I’ve witnessed it and a day doesn’t go by that I doubt it. It has nothing to do with God, but only my lack of faith. If I had the faith to trust God completely my life would be so different. I wouldn’t waste so much time worrying and doubting, but be more focused on God’s plans for my life. My anxiety would be gone, because I would rest in the Lord and not my own understanding.

Application: I need to try harder in trusting God and His mercy and faithfulness. I need to spend more time in prayer and remembering all that He has done for me already. As soon as doubt comes into my mind, I need to run to my Lord for help to remove it. I have the choice whether to trust my God or not and if I choose wisely God will do the rest. Trust is a very big part of love and if I don’t trust my Lord, I’m telling Him I don’t love Him completely.

Prayer: My Lord you know my heart and my desire to honor and love you. I can’t do it in my flesh and only by the Holy Spirit can it be done. So please Lord fill me with the Holy Spirit and take charge of your servant that I will trust in your faithfulness and show you that I love you completely
