The words of the familiar old hymn “Trust and Obey” remind us of the importance of trusting God. In the fourth verse, the words “What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go; Never fear, only trust and obey.” And then the familiar chorus is “Trust and obey, for there’s no other way To be happy in Jesus, But to trust and obey.” The words may be easy to sing, but how do we measure up when it comes to living out the words – trust and obey?
Today’s passage tells us God’s purposes are not affected by people’s plans. Joseph was able to look back on the events of his life and see God’s hand at work through all of it. God’s purposes could be trusted. We can trust that God’s purpose is right for our lives today no matter what other people may do or say. Are you allowing yourself to trust God’s purposes completely in your own life?
Father, thank You that Your purpose for my life is completely dependable and true.
