In you, Lord my God,
    I put my trust.

I trust in you;
    do not let me be put to shame,
    nor let my enemies triumph over me.

Psalm 25:1-2

The 25^th Psalm is all about trust, forgiveness, and faithfulness. An interesting component of this is the fact that our placing all of our trust in God is the key to forgiveness of our sins. Put another way, what God really wants from His people is that they place their trust in Him alone.

If you take a look at the rest of Psalm 25, you’ll see exactly what I mean. You’ll see that we do not need to be perfect- yes, we will mess up sometimes. We do not need to become spiritual giants; we just need to put our complete trust in God, and let Him take care of the rest.

It may be a bit mind-blowing for some, but this is the central core of the Christian faith in its simplest and purest form: Put your trust in Him. When we do, He will guide us in His ways, lead us where we should go and protect us from Evil. There is nothing in this world which can compare with God’s faithfulness, nothing and no one who is as reliable as God. Will we trust Him?
