Summary
As we have learned this week, our God is fully trustworthy. Placing our trust in his hands is the wisest thing we could ever do. As we finish up our week on trust today, we’ll explore how trust plays a role in our sanctification and maturing as believers. As we commit to walk with and trust the Lord, may he bring forth a harvest of righteousness in our lives.
Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 37:5–6, and today's worship is New by First15 Worship feat. Craig and Rachel Denison.

Your gift will be DOUBLED to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God
Two years ago, First15 began a Spanish version called Primeros15. And God is using it to impact many lives. But today, he’s calling us to more.
More Spanish-speaking men and women connecting with him and impacting the culture around them.
That’s why we’ve just launched a summer campaign to deepen the reach and impact of Primeros15 — and why we’re asking you to jump in with us!
We’ve set a $100,000 goal, and a generous $25,000 Matching Grant has been offered to double the impact of any gift given by July 31. So please give to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God.

| 1:13.6 | As a believer, I've always tried to pursue holiness, and I always seem to fail. |
| 1:19.6 | It seems like no matter what I do, I can't escape sin and can't get past my own brokenness and mess. |
| 1:31.1 | Even in seasons where I'm experiencing freedom from some sins, |
| 1:35.7 | there always seem to be something else I need to fix or get better at. |
| 1:40.1 | I felt like I was on this endless tightrope of spiritual development that I kept falling off of, |
| 1:42.5 | and of which I couldn't seem to find the end. |
| 1:46.9 | While God's heart is most definitely for our sanctification and holiness, |
| 1:51.8 | his perspective is far different from what I just described. |
| 1:56.2 | You see, God knows that sanctification doesn't come about through our own efforts. |
| 2:01.8 | I can in no way sanctify myself, because in and of myself, I have no holiness. |
| 2:08.9 | The truth God is for us today is simply this. |
| 2:12.7 | Sanctification comes about by true relationship with our Heavenly Father alone. |
| 2:18.3 | Holiness is the direct result of openly and continually encountering the nature of a perfect, loving, and available God. |
