Trusting in God
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
“Preserve me, O God, for in You I put my trust. O my soul, you have said to the Lord, "You are my Lord, My goodness is nothing apart from You." Psalm 16:1-2
Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him.
Truly he is my rock and my salvation: he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. Psalm 62:5-6
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. Psalm 91:1-2

“If I stand still without moving on I am in danger of becoming static, of failing to grow, possibly even of fossilizing.”
“If I journey on without remaining still in my innermost being, I am in danger of becoming a wanderer, someone who is endlessly searching.
“If I do not continually stop and listen to the voice of God, I am in danger of listening only to my own self, and so failing to discern what he is asking of me.”
