Insight for Today
Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
Trust, Part Two
“I will lean on, rely on, rest in, surrender to, depend on, relax.” How can I do this? By being convinced that God is totally trustworthy. He cares. He’s reliable. He isn’t clumsy. Or unskilled. Or out to get me. Or only working part time.
