<hr />
<blockquote><p>“<em><strong>For the word of the Lord is right and true; He is faithful in all He does. The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His unfailing love.</strong></em>”  <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Psalm 33:4–5</strong></span> (NIV)</p></blockquote>
<p><em>God is love</em> (<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>1 John 4:16</strong></span>), <em>and so we know He is patient and kind; He’s never rude or self-seeking; He’s not easily angered, and He keeps no record of wrongs; He does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth; He always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres; He never fails </em>(<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>1 Corinthians 13:4–8</strong></span>).</p>
<p>God is <em>always fair </em>(<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Deuteronomy 32:4</strong></span>); He’s <em>pure and honest </em>(<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Hebrews 6:18)</strong></span>; He <em>cannot break a promise </em>(<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Numbers 23:19</strong></span>), <em>never fails to fulfill a promise</em> (<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Joshua 21:45</strong></span>) and is <em>trustworthy in everything </em>He does (<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Psalm 33:4</strong></span>).</p>
<h4>The issue, then, is not if God can be trusted;  the issue is with our ability to trust.</h4>
<p><strong>Your first step toward trusting God may be this simple:</strong> focus your attention on Him. When you focus on yourself, the inevitable result is worry, insecurity, anxiety, guilt, fear, and discouragement. But when you shift your focus to God, you’ll begin to experience hope, confidence, gratitude, and love. God gives peace to all who trust in Him<br />
(<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Isaiah 26:3</strong></span>).</p>
