Job 13:15. “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.”
I WILL TRUST. They were saying some things that are right – But were making applications that were wrong. They are pretending to have some good insight – But their common sense seems to be gone. They are speaking of things they know nothing of; They think they are speaking for God above; But they really don’t know He is a God of love – So, I will put my trust in Him alone.
There are some who say they are speaking for God – But apparently have never experienced His grace. They think I should pay attention to their every word – But they are definitely not people of faith. I may not understand why God allows certain things – I may not appreciate all the difficulties life brings – I may not always have a spiritual song to sing – But I will still trust in Him and seek His face.
I really would like God to take these trials away – They seem to drain the life out of me. I really would like Him to draw near and say Why He has allowed this and let me see. But though this time of testing in death may end – If my heavenly Father doesn’t some relief soon send – To the pressures of Satan, I will not bend – I will trust my God for all eternity.
There are some things I must go through without knowing why But I will trust Him and not be afraid. There must be some reason He feels my integrity must be tried But by His Word, I know on Christ my guilt was laid. So, there must be another reason this has come to pass – And although I don’t know how long this testing time will last – I will take Him at His Word and on Him my burden cast – I will trust my God and rest in His grace.
“Heavenly Father, I know there is today some of Thy people going through times of pain and uncertainty. Draw near to them and recover them to Thyself once again that they may rejoice in Thee. I seek the same for myself this day. Give us the joy of knowing and seeing Thy salvation. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
