Today’s Scripture: Psalm 143:8 ESV; Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
In coming to know God and who He is I come to trust Him. As we mature in faith we learn how little we can trust ourselves but how abundantly we can trust God.
I heard God’s steadfast love this morning just as David must have when he captured his experience here in Psalm 143:8. I hear God by remembering who He is. He is the Creator God; He is the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Joshua and all of those we remember in His Word.
When I hallow His name I recall these characters of old and I hear Him. I see how He led those who had no idea where He was leading. He showed them the way they should go and my soul is lifted to know He knows my way. I will go because in God I trust.
Do you trust in God? Is your soul lifted by hearing of His steadfast love in the morning?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for speaking to us out of Your steadfast love. Thank you for showing us that we can trust in You. Your Word, Your servants from old assure me of Your guidance and Your provision. I am Your servant and I trust in You. Amen

Affirmations of God
Thank you, Tom for reminding me of who I can put my trust each and every day. I personally like how the new living translation reads;
Psalm 143:8 (NLT)
Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,
for I am trusting you.
Show me where to walk,
for I give myself to you.
God bless you, Tom as you go about your day!
