Day 5 - Trust God

Psalm 37

The world is full of corruption and sin, and we are all surrounded by wicked people and wicked ways. God does not want us to follow in this corruption, so he gives us some examples of what we should do in Psalm 37. The main point that God emphasizes is "trust in me." It also goes on to list the negative things that happen in life, and how we should give it all to God. We are told to: "be still in the presence of God," "trust in the Lord," and "turn from evil and do good." Psalm 37 also talks about many ways that God has helped us and looked out for us. It goes on to show what your life would be like if you followed God faithfully. God did many things to prepare the way for us, and many of these ways are discussed within Psalm 37.

We are to walk justly and uprighteously. If we truly want to live in the way God commands, we are to follow his regulations and guidelines. Psalms 37 gives many good examples of what we can do to follow him and to live a pure life. We are to put our hope and trust in God, step out of our comfort zone, and walk into a pure and just life.

God, help me to put my trust and hope in you. Allow me to follow your ways, and to continue life without giving into the pressures of the world around me. Be my strength, and my guide. Be my hope in times of trouble. Amen.
