With all that is going on in our country and the world weather wise it is so good to know that God is in charge!  Some think that man can control things, but the devastation that has and is taking place dramatically demonstrates that man is not in charge in fact he is helpless in the face of the storms’ fury!  
 
How grateful we are to belong to Christ Jesus our Lord!  That is where our trust resides! 
 
Psalm 143:8 is a good verse to start with each morning, (Is this your prayer?)  
“Let the morning bring me word of Your unfailing love, 
for I have put my trust in You, 
Show me the way I should go (walk),
for to You I lift up my soul”
 
As for this unfailing love, Paul tells us in Ephesians how he prays for the Ephesians (and all Believers):
“…I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.”  
Ephesians 3:17-19
 
Have you noticed, as you spend time with the Lord in your morning devotions, His love embraces you.  Why?  Because you have placed your trust in Him who is ever present.  The One who delights in your trust.  
 
Scripture tells us of the promises God has made to those who trust Him.  The following are just a few:  
“Oh, how great is Your goodness, 
Which you have laid up for those who fear You,
Which You have prepared for those who trust You
In the presence of the sons of men!”  Psalm 31:19
 
“Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.”  Psalm 32:10
 
“The LORD redeems the soul of His servants,
And none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned.”  Psalm 34:22
(Romans 8:2 tells us, “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”)
 
“Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion,
Which cannot be moved, but abides forever.”  Psalm 125:1
 
Isaiah 26:3 give us this assurance,
“You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trust in You.”
 
As for the Believers’ walk, Scripture has much to say.  We have looked at these verses in the past so I will just gives you the address and I urge your to review them in the light of our opening verse.  (This could lead you to a deeper study.   How wonderful is that!)  
The verses are as follows:
Walk in…
Romans 6:4, “newness of life”
2 Corinthians 5:7,  “by faith”
Galatians 5:16,  “in the Spirit”
Ephesians 4:1  “worthy of your calling”
Ephesians 5:2  “in love”
Ephesians 5:15  “circumspectly (wisely, cautiously)
1 John 1:7  “in the light”
1 John 2:6  “as Jesus did”
 
Whatever comes our way, storms of all kinds, we have the assurance of Joshua 1:9,
“…Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD  is with you wherever you go.” 
 
And the assurance from Jesus Himself in Matthew 28:20,
“…and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
 
So along with our morning verse we can do as Proverbs 3:5-6 directs,
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart 
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.”
 
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
Ephesians 2:10
 
Lord, thank you that You are always with us, loving us, directing our path that we would do those good works that you have prepared for us to walk in daily.  Help us Holy Spirit to keep our eyes on Christ Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.  Lord God, be glorified in this earth!  Amen
