To trust God is to put our whole confidence in Him. Our hope needs to be
in God alone. Because God's love is unending and unconditional, we can
come to Him with open hearts. In verse 4 where it says "show me your ways
Lord, teach me your paths", the psalmist is clearly saying that we are to
have teachable hearts and a genuine desire to learn more about how God wants
us to live each day.
God is a merciful God. We are all unworthy but because of God's
grace and mercy towards us, we are forgiven from all our sins. We are a new
creation in Christ and because of what Jesus did for us on the cross, we are
redeemed, made new, and can find a rest deep within our souls. There is
relief from our troubles as we learn to depend on Him and desire His ways
in our lives.
Éternel, fais-moi connaître tes voies, enseigne-moi
tes sentiers! Fais-moi marcher dans ta vérité et m'enseigne; car tu es le Dieu de ma
délivrance, je m'attends à toi tout le jour. Souviens-toi de
tes compassions, ô Éternel, et de tes bontés; car elles sont de tout
temps. Ne te souviens point des péchés de ma jeunesse, ni de mes
transgressions; selon ta miséricorde, souviens-toi de moi, à cause de ta bonté,
ô Éternel!
