Psalm 37:5 (NKJV) 5 Commit your way to the Lord,\u00a0Trust\u00a0also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Over the last 10 years I have learned a lot about trusting God no matter what a situation looks like.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Just like you, we have walked through some pretty tough situations over the years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For us, it began around 2012. The period between 2012 and 2016 was gut-wrenching.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That\u00a04-5 year\u00a0period made us feel like our guts were being ripped out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In reality, though, it was our pride and many other things that were being ripped out. We just didn\u2019t know it at the time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Hindsight is always interesting, to be sure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

During those times of extreme duress, we learned who we were and where our trust really was.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Yes, we trusted God. But we learned that we didn\u2019t trust Him nearly as much as we thought we did. And He was in the process of showing us what it really meant to trust Him with everything about our lives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As we learned this, things started falling back into place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Then along came 2020. And the rug got pulled from under the feet of the entire world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This time, though, we leaned on God from the outset and He carried us through, as He does so very well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What\u2019s really interesting is that the 37th Psalm was written by David, as he questioned God about why it seemed that corrupt, evil people most often went without punishment for their sins and their crimes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Ultimately, David came to understand that God is sovereign, and that He works things out in His way and His timing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And so, as I have watched the incredible, very visible rise of evil during 2020 and now into 2021, I know that it is in God\u2019s hands.<\/p>\n

In 2021, God is once again teaching me more and more about trusting Him, especially when things don\u2019t look the way I would like them to.<\/p>\n

I am to pray, to fast when He asks me to, and to do\u00a0battle in\u00a0the spiritual realm, all the while trusting Him and His ways. In this, I know that evil will be repaid, and justice will be done when and how He sees fit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019s not always easy to surrender my thinking, my opinions and my feelings to His providence, but I know it\u2019s the only way that I can learn to truly trust Him in all things.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
