Trust the Father

"My times are in Your hands..." (Psalm 31:15).


Throughout the Psalms, David acknowledges that he chose to put his life in the hands of the Lord. In this verse, He was, in essence, saying, "I trust You, God, because I know You are good-my times are in Your hands." Are you willing to release every area of your life to the Father? Are you willing to trust Him with the times and seasons of your life? You may be in a situation right now that you don't fully understand, but take heart-God is a good God, and you can trust Him. He is working behind the scenes on your behalf. If you'll keep your heart surrendered to Him, you'll begin to see things change in your favor. As you continue to trust Him, He'll open doors for you. He'll take what the enemy meant for evil in your life, and He'll turn it around for your good. Keep standing, keep believing, and trust Him. Your times are in His hands!

Prayer

Heavenly Father, today I choose to trust You. I trust that You are working behind the scenes on my behalf. I trust You with my whole life-my times are in Your hands. Help me to stay close to You today so that I can hear Your voice. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
