"Trust in the Lord with all your heart     and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways submit to him,     and he will make your paths straight."

You are our God from everlasting to everlasting. May you be praised by us all day long. You give us good gifts and we praise you for all your goodness! Although you give us all good things, we don't deserve them. Help our sin and unbelief. May we ever-place our trust in you. Help us to turn to you when things get tough instead of turning to the world. Lord God, thank you for all of your love and concern for us.
