But GOD....

For every night, there is day.
For every frown, there is a smile.
For every valley, there is a hill.
For every prayer, there is an answer!

Is there no end to your bad night?
Are you thinking that your frown will never be turned upside down?
Is your valley to big to get out of?
Are you still waiting on your prayer to be answered?

What have you done to change this?

There is only one solution:
TRUST IN THE LORD!
Put your trust in the One who created the heavens and the earth; the One who knows every hair on your head; the One who calls you His own; the One who will never leave you nor forsake you; the One who gave His life up so that you might live; the One we cry out to morning, noon and night; THE ONE.

The word Trust shows up in Psalms 60 times. Why is that? Because it is that important!

According to the dictionary Trust means:
1a : assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something
1b : one in which confidence is placed

2 : dependence on something future or contingent : hope

3a (1) : a charge or duty imposed in faith or confidence or as a condition of some relationship
(2) : something committed or entrusted to one to be used or cared for in the interest of another


I ask that you really consider placing your trust in something that will NOT FAIL you. Money will fail you, people will fail you, things will fail you BUT GOD won't fail you.
When things start getting rough just remember....BUT GOD!
"Money is tight...BUT GOD can do all things!"
"Joe left...BUT GOD will never leave you"
BUT GOD!!


Proverbs 3:4-6
Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.
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.

Psalm 91:2
I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
Psalm 20:7
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

1 Chronicles 5:20b
He answered their prayers, because they trusted in him.
