Simply Trusting

Lora (from Eager Hands)  shared a devotion from Streams in the Desert a few days ago that I thought I would pass along.  You can read it here. I hope you can take the time to stop over and read the whole devotion but if not I have included a poem that was shared below.

Trust and rest when all around thee

Puts thy faith to sorest test;

Let no fear or foe confound thee, 

Wait for God and trust and rest.

Trust and rest with heart abiding,

Like a birdling in its nest,

Underneath His feathers hiding,

Fold thy wings and trust and rest.

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.  (Psalm 91:4)

For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.  I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. (Psalm 61:3-4) 

Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast. (Psalm 57:1)
