Trust in God

"Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?" -Isaiah 2:22 NIV


We all look to celebrities, to our families, to talk show personalities for answers to our problems. When a tragedy strikes a nation or a calamity occurs we turn on our television and see what the television personality says or call our family for answers. While people can offer advice that will satisfy our immediate needs, we can always find ourselves still in need of answers.

Instead of looking to man and trusting in man's pursuits, let us pursue God for His answers to the fears and worries of the world.

Come

"Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters...." Isaiah 55:1 NIV

When was the last time you sat down and wrote something worth-while? Did you remember your King while you wrote? In times when your writing appears dry and dull and needs a fresh in-filling of the Holy Spirit to revive your quill, take time to remember Christ and let Him refill you.

Taking time to let Him refill you means going to Him in prayerful expectation that He will do what He has promise to you.

Reading the Word of God and letting a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit surround your thoughts to help your writing be fresh and clean like water.
