Put your trust in the Lord/ Faites confiance au Seigneur

Wednesday 13th December

Psalm62          Isaiah 31    1 Thessalonians 2.13-20    Matthew 15.1-20

Psaumes 62     Esaie 31    1 Thessaloniciens 2.13-20   Matthieu 15.1-20



This is one of the Psalms one turns to when one needs reassurance.  It is full of confidence that the only safe refuge to be found is in the hands of God.  Although the evil ones of the world, who place their trust in their own resources, seem to be able to carry on and on assaulting God’s people, their worldling’s threats are just that: threats; they are incapable of harming God’s people.  Those who truly trust in God will receive their reward.



Although each of these meditations is supposed only to cover one of the day’s readings, it’s worth noting that the Old Testament reading for today, Isaiah 31, makes a similar point about the dangers of relying on Earthly power.
