The Lord's Confidence



"The Lord confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them." Psalm 25:14

A few weeks ago at our Higher Ground meeting (our Monday night women's Bible study/support group) we were discussing the holiness of God. And one of the women raised here hand and said, "Some where in the Bible, I'm not sure where, it says God confides in those that fear Him." That sounded awfully familiar. Then it struck me. During our banquet season in September, Tom Paschke was the featured speaker. His theme was "My Life in a Box". I had an opportunity to hear Tom a couple of times and each time he referred to this verse. So when it was brought up at Higher Ground I went looking for Psalm 25:14. And there it was, "The Lord confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them."
Do you fear Him today? Can you imagine? The Lord of Hosts, Creator, King, Master, and sustainer of the universe, wants to confide in you. He wants to make His way known to you. Are you listening?
Psalm 25:4-5 makes a great prayer: "Show me your ways O Lord, teach me your paths, guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior and my hope is in you all day long."
