Trust when Tried

Read:  Psalm 62 / Proverbs 17 / 2 Chronicles 32 / James 1

Psalm 62:8 Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.
Proverbs 17:3 The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.
2 Chronicles 32:31 In the business of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon... God left him [Hezekiah], to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

We need to trust when we are tried
And pour our hearts out to the Lord.
The Lord is searching us inside;
Endurance has a sweet reward. 

When Hezekiah had temptation,
The Lord exposed his pride within. 
We need the Lord's examination
That He may cleanse us from our sin.
