Trust and obey

1
When we walk with the Lord
  In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way;
  While we do His good will,
  He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
  Trust and obey,
For there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
  But to trust and obey.
2
Not a shadow can rise,
  Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
  Not a doubt or a fear,
  Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.
3
Not a burden we bear,
  Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
  Not a grief or a loss,
  Not a frown or a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.
4
But we never can prove
  The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay;
  For the favor He shows,
  And the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.
5
Then in fellowship sweet
  We will sit at His feet,
Or we'll walk by His side in the way;
  What He says we will do;
  Where He sends, we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.

All we need to do is to trust in the Lord and obey His word.

I woke up this morning and the first thing that came to my mind is this song so I kept humming the song. Still not satisfy I decided to search for the lyrics and incorporated it as part of today's morning devotion. Indeed I feel relieved knowing fully that when we rely on God He will see us through and make a way for us. I implore everyone that no matter what you are passing through even if is the greatest storms of life Just trust in God. Remain Blessed.

I was feeling low and frightened of the future, and this hymn came into my mind and it's wonderful to hang onto. A timely reminder of Who and what is important in this world.

Every time I failed, I remember this song because there are times I forget to call Jesus, but Jesus never to forget me. All I can do is TRUST AND OBEY TO JESUS.

Then in fellowship sweet, I have this morning sat at His feet....I am so blessed by the words of this song. The Lord chose to remind me this song most of the day and very early in the morning. It's interesting how God uses a hymn done years ago to speak to me today.

Lord cause me to trust You. My sin is anxiety. Cause me to trust and obey.

This song was written after a D. L. Moody evangelistic meeting in Brockton, Massachusetts. Daniel Towner was the song leader that night in 1886, and he asked the people to share how they had been saved. Several stood and spoke of how certain they felt of their salvation. But then a young man rose and said, "I am not quite sure, but I am going to trust, and I am going to obey."

Towner couldn't forget that testimony. He jotted it down and sent it to John Sammis, who had recently left a career in business to enter the ministry, with the hope that Sammis would find in it the inspiration for a hymn text. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown and Norton

I love this hymn because, as do many parts of the Bible, it expresses the wonderful working together of faith and works. It is hard to define, but it is not hard to experience.
