20 Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good,
and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord. Proverbs 16:20 (ESV)
Words into deeds. So often I return to this thought when studying scripture. Proverbs reminds us that the key to a blessed life is trust in the Lord. This idea is prevalent throughout scripture. I agree completely with this. However, I think that too often people's trust stops short of being a lifestyle.
I can say I trust the Lord, but do I let Him guide my financial decisions? Do I allow my trust to guide my conversations with those at work? Does my trust extend to how I allocate my time?
If my trust does not affect my action, it is of little value. If my life is not lived out based on trust in the Lord, will I be blessed?
Action must follow belief.
