—Psalm 40:1-5
by: Paula Davis.
It is sometimes more difficult to wait patiently for the Lord and to put our trust only in him than it is to put our trust in the men and women around us. God has given us many men and women to be examples to us, to assist us in our faith, and to encourage us. But these people are not enough, and our trust should not be in them. God is our only firm foundation. He hears us when we cry, and he will turn to us with assistance. In his time we will be lifted out of the pit of our troubles and despair, and once again we will be able to rejoice in him.
