Faith Words: Trust

We all know lots of people. People in our families. People in our churches. People in our neighborhoods.  And even though we know lots of people, there are few we trust. Why is that? Trust is fragile.  Trust can be broken and lost. Trust is earned. When we trust someone, we’re vulnerable. Who can we trust?  How can we trust? Those questions we each have to answer for ourselves. There are common characteristics of a trustworthy person but finding them in one person - ah! That’s like finding gold! The good news is that even though people may let us down, there is One who is always worthy of our trust: the Lord. When all else fails - when everyone else fails - He alone can always be counted on.  Rejoice!  We can trust Him.  Patrice Psalms‬ ‭33:21‬ ‭NIV‬‬  In Him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in His holy name. ‭‭

Faith Words: New Song

I don’t listen to the radio much anymore but recently I heard a new song on Christian radio:  “Truth Be Told.”  A few days later, I heard another new song:  “I Got Saved.”  When you hear a new song that speaks to your heart and soul, it sometimes has special meaning to you and you alone, a special meaning that no one else would understand.  I think that’s what the new song will be like when we sing it before the Throne. It will be a personal praise song to the Lord that expresses the gratitude for being redeemed. It will tell my redemption story. It will tell yours.  It will be different from any song we’ve ever sung before because our redemption will be complete! Let’s get ready to sing! Patrice Revelation 14:3a NIV “And they sang a new song before the throne.....”
