Trusted

Thelma's rose
.
We know You were there for our parents: they cried for Your help and you gave it; they trusted and lived a good life.

For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him).

This message is most trustworthy, and concerning these things I want you to insist steadfastly, so that those who have believed in (trusted in, relied on) God may be careful to apply themselves to honorable occupations and to doing good, for such things are [not only] excellent and right [in themselves], but [they are] good and profitable for the people.

I am not ashamed, for I know Him Whom I have believed (adhered to and trusted in and relied on), and I am [positively] persuaded that He is able to guard and keep that which has been entrusted to me and which I have committed [to Him] until that day.

Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.

I have trusted, leaned on, and been confident in Your mercy and loving-kindness; my heart shall rejoice and be in high spirits in Your salvation.

Psalm 22:3 1 Corinthians 1:21 Titus 3:8 2 Timothy 1:12 Hebrews 10:23 Psalm 13:5

Our greatest security is found in the eternal love of our eternal God.
