Trust in Him at all times.Psalm 62:8

Faith is as much the rule of temporal as of spiritual life; we ought to have

faith in God for our earthly affairs as well as for our heavenly business. It
is only as we learn to trust in God for the supply of all our daily need that
we shall live above the world. We are not to be idle, that would show we
did not trust in God, who worketh hitherto, but in the devil, who is the
father of idleness. We are not to be imprudent or rash; that were to trust
chance, and not the living God, who is a God of economy and order.
Acting in all prudence and uprightness, we are to rely simply and entirely
upon the Lord at all times.

Let me commend to you…

a life of trust in God in temporal things. Trusting

in God, you will not be compelled to mourn because you have used sinful
means to grow rich. Serve God with integrity, and if you achieve no
success, at least no sin will lie upon your conscience. Trusting God, you
will not be guilty of self-contradiction. He who trusts in craft, sails this
way to-day, and that way the next, like a vessel tossed about by the fickle
wind; but he that trusteth in the Lord is like a vessel propelled by steam,
she cuts through the waves, defies the wind, and makes one bright silvery
straightforward track to her destined haven. Be you a man with living
principles within; never bow to the varying customs of worldly wisdom.
Walk in your path of integrity with steadfast steps, and show that you are
invincibly strong in the strength which confidence in God alone can confer.
Thus you will be delivered from carking care, you will not be troubled with
evil tidings, your heart will be fixed, trusting in the Lord. How pleasant to
float along the stream of providence! There is no more blessed way of
living than a life of dependence upon a covenant-keeping God. We have no
care, for He careth for us; we have no troubles, because we cast our
burdens upon the Lord.
