Write the Word-May 2021, Choosing Trust

Hello Sparrow’s Song family, 

It’s that time again. Time to Write the Word!  

In this day and age, we need the Word of God more than ever. As we go along with our lives, the battle to find peace in this dark and evil world becomes even more of a struggle. When we are feeling despondent, dejected, or  in despair, we have to remember to trust God!  

Trust is the firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.

Our firm belief, our trust, should be in God. He is totally reliable. He is full of truth. He has the strength and ability to move, change, and fix the hardest situations and turn them around for our good.  

We all know this and are fully convinced, but sometimes, skepticism, cynicism, emotionalism, and all other sorts of negativity tries to creep in to chip away at our confident trust. 

In these times, we must choose trust!  We must choose to continue to remember that God is trustworthy!  We must renew our minds with the truth of God’s Word. Then, allow that truth to be written on our hearts.  

This month’s Write the Word theme is Choosing Trust. We will be writing passages that focus on Choosing Trust when life seems overwhelming, or when another choice might seem more appealing. We’ll write passage like:  

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. Psalm 20:7 

Trust in the Lord, and do good;Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.  Psalm 37:1-4

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

As you write, pour out your heart to the Lord.  Ask Him to strengthen your heart, and allow Him to change your thinking. Choosing Trust is a process that starts with the Word of God. Writing the Word is a helpful way to learn how we can choose trust. 

Join us as we Write the Word this month. I’d love to hear from you. It brings me so much joy to hear your stories and testimonies of the changes happening in your life as you dig deeper into the Word of God. Join the Sparrow’s Song Facebook Group here. See you there!  

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace, 

Erica
