April 25 – Psalm 118:5
Psalm 118:5 NIV
In my anguish I cried to the Lord, and He
answered by setting me free.
God showed me this verse one time when
I’d had a couple of big people-disappointments.
But He has used the same principle in several
areas. My situation doesn’t change, but He
sets me free of —– whatever. My need for
people to live up to my plans or expectations,
my need to be admired or to get recognition,
my need to look as good as the next guy.
Isn’t His way so much better! SO FREEING!

I am in the process of learning to Trust Him. Shockingly enough, it is a process of trusting myself less and letting go more. But it is always amazing to me, every time, how FAST he answers. I mean, He is just so desperately yearning to bless us and set everything right in our lives. Restore, refresh, and Redeem. How great is our God?
