Psalm 31:5 – March 30, 2020

Into your hand I commit my spirit; you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God.

 

Thought:

We say we have faith in God, but do we really trust him?  David’s words, “Into your hand I commit my spirit,” convey his complete trust in God.  Jesus used this phrase as He was dying on the cross, showing his absolute dependence on God (Luke 23:46).  Stephen repeated these words as he was being stoned to death (Acts 7:59), confident that in death he was simply passing from God’s earthy care to God’s eternal care.  We should commit our possessions, our families, and our vocations to God…But first and foremost, we should commit ourselves completely to Him.

There is no better time to commit your life to Jesus then right now.  Ready?
