When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
- Psalm 56:3 (NIV)
There are a few things that truly terrify me.
Spiders. Storms. Breaking bones. Being alone. Ruining relationships. Wrecking my motorcycle.
Those are just a few of my fears, not necessarily in that order either.
I try to be brave.
I’ve killed multiple spiders (don’t try to talk me out of it), I’ve survived many storms and a few broken bones.
But no matter how brave I try to be, there are some things that I just can’t get through.
David tells us in this psalm that no matter what we are afraid of, we can give our situation to God and ask Him to take away our fear.
We aren’t necessarily asking God to change the situation but asking Him to change our response to it.
There are still very scary things out there, but when we erase our worry and fear and replace it with trust, we get through the situations a little less stressed.
