Welcome to the NeighborhoodSample

Have you ever been hurt or betrayed by someone you trusted? The pain can linger a long time impacting your relationship and sometimes your faith. It can be difficult to remember what is true and who is trustworthy.

That’s what the author of Deuteronomy is doing for Israel: reminding them what’s true. Even though they’ve experienced hardship and their situation isn’t ideal, they’re reminded that God is faithful and God’s love doesn’t change. Even more? God can be trusted. This doesn’t mean things are never difficult again. But, it does mean when difficulties arise, you are reminded of God’s trustworthiness and faithfulness in the middle of it all.

When people let you down or disappoint you, remember this verse. Today, write down three ways you have seen God’s trustworthiness. It can change how you respond to tough circumstances.
