Trusting God, No Matter What

 

[Graphic of a sign]


“I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation…”
—Philippians 4:12c

“No matter what happens in my life, I intend to trust God!”

That kind of a bold statement comes from someone who has faced many trials in life and found perfect peace at the center of God’s will for his or her life. God is faithful. He is trustworthy—that is, He is worthy of our trust.

No matter what kind of “storm” may roll into our lives, no matter how deep our disappointment, no matter how strong an attack from Satan assails us, the God who loves us with His powerful and everlasting love will give us the ability to overcome.

So, as this new day begins, take comfort from these words of the Apostle Paul as recorded in Philippians 4:12-13:

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
