April 18 - Trust and Rely

“Who among you fears the Lord and obeys the word of his servant? Let the one who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the Lord and rely on their God.” Isaiah 50:10 (NIV)

Through the writings of the Prophet Isaiah, God has given us words of encouragement if we are ones who honor the Lord and obey the words He has given to us in the Bible.  We thinking today especially of the last part of this verse. It is an  invitation to trust the Lord when the way seems dark ahead of us. When our verse mentions that a person might be without a light, it reminds us that we need to recognize that we don't have a light within ourselves. Human wisdom does not provide the answers to spiritual problems. We don't know the future but we have a God who does.  So when we can't see the way ahead, we are invited to look to God for His answer.  Are any of us looking at a future that is not certain and can not be fully determined and depended on?  God is in our future and He is the one who promises to give light to our feet and path and wisdom to make our decisions.  Trust and rely on our God today.
