Encouraging Scripture-Make the choice to trust God

Trust is something that is earned, that we make a decision to give to someone.  Our Lord has certainly earned our trust, but are we really willing to give it to him?  We're better off if we do.  If David hadn't trusted the Lord, he probably doesn't have the courage to take on Goliath with a mere slingshot, and the Old Testament would have been a lot shorter.  What accomplishments are we missing because we haven't made the choice to trust God?

When I am afraid, I will trust in you.  In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid.What can mortal man do to me?
Psalm 56:3-4 (NIV) from Bible Gateway
