“When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You” (56:3).
Psalm 56
I t is tempting to read the account of the biblical history of the Hebrew nation from the days of the exodus from Egypt through the times of the judges, the kings, and glibly point your finger at their fickle nature toward their Creator and Deliverer. Until, you look in the mirror and see gross similarities in how we often question God’s trustworthiness when tragedy strikes or when He doesn’t deliver our desires on a silver platter. We would be in an eternally helpless predicament if God kept track of the times we questioned His trustworthiness and countless efforts to heal, rescue, save, and protect His flock.
