Trust in the LORD,

         and do good;

dwell in the land

and befriend faithfulness.

             Psalm 37.3

(Trust, do good, dwell,

and pasture, tend, graze,

   and feed on faithfulness.

These are action verbs.

Trusting in the LORD

develops a new heart in us

  and empowers us

                 to do the rest.

Trusting Him does not

 open new doors

       or new options,

but creates new responses

               in our hearts.

    "I never saw that before."

We dwell among others

               differently,

stirring up faithfulness

tending it like a flock,

and feeding on faithfulness

     as one of our

          daily food groups.

Our lives cannot help

              but be different,

   not just look that way.

Trusting God in this

    means different choices,

          different fruit,

    a different journey,

    and a different outcome.)

O LORD,

We do not just trust You

   for a particular answer,

but we seek You

   and trust You in this

because You are our LORD.

We are not walking alone

     but walking with You.

Help us to be faithful to You

   in all that we do,

   knowing that changes us.

May we be known as Yours.

Because we trust You

          in the ordinary,

we know how to trust You

      in the known, the unknown,

              and the extraordinary.

Trusting You impacts everyone

       around us.
