These words are taken from my bible study this morning, a Beth Moore study called "Stepping Up."
"Our temptation is to place our security in the blessings we readily credit to the Lord...God's favor and His person are not synonymous. If our trust is in manifestations of God's favor rather than God Himself, we will crumble like dry clay when He calls us to walk a distance of our journeys entirely by faith and not by sight.
...God is with us and for us even when His face and His favor seem hidden. Mountain-like security only comes from trusting God, not what He's done for us or given us..."
Psalm 125:1 "Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion which cannot be shaken but endures forever."
I am praying that I can truly learn to trust in the Lord, looking for Him alone to be my security. I found these words challenging and inspiring, I hope you do too! Have a blessed day!
