Trust In The Divine

 2 Timothy 1:12  

"For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: 

for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able 

to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day."

    Paul says that he has made his deposit with God.  He has entrusted both his work and his life to him. He had sowed his seed and preached his gospel, and the result he left in the hands of God. Paul had entrusted his life to God; and he was sure that in life and in death he was safe. Why was he so sure? Because he knew whom he had believed in. 
     We must always remember that Paul does not say that he knew what he had believed. His certainty did not come from the intellectual knowledge of a creed or a theology; it came from a personal knowledge of God. He knew God personally and intimately; he knew what he was like in love and in power; and to Paul it was inconceivable that he should fail him. 
    If we have worked honestly and done the best that we can, we can leave the result to God, however inadequate that work may seem to us. With him in this or any other world life is safe, for nothing can separate us from the love of Christ Jesus our Lord. 
Amen!
