Tuesday’s Devotion: New Every Morning

Psalm 143:8 "Cause me to hear your lovingkindness in the morning, for in you do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you."

Life is about finding a balance between trust in others and trust in God. I trust my wonderful husband in so many different ways. I trust my trainer not to direct me to do exercises that would cause me physical harm. There are many people I need to be able to trust.  But there are limits.  I must test everything others offer against my own understanding and I must trust my own understanding against God’s Word.  Thank goodness we have a God so full of lovingkindness towards us.  I hope that along with me you will each seek and find God’s presence every morning before your busy day begins.

Gracious God, how we need your love and care every day. Our ultimate trust lies in you, our Creator and our sustainer. -- Because of your great love we are not consumed,
for your compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” Amen
