True Happiness by Trusting in Him

By: Rebekah Bingham

I love this song. Whenever I am going through a hard time, even a hard moment, I find myself humming this song, almost instinctively. This song has become a part of me. Sometimes life can be so overwhelming, dark, and hard! Other times, it can also be full of joy and happiness! Whatever the time in life, this song applies to me. The Lord never lets me go! All I have to do is turn to Him, trust in Him, and delight in Him. I have to place my life in His hands, and He will always take care of me. He has a perfect plan, and it is so much better than my own plan. I trust Him with every part of me. I know that He has always guided me, and I know He will continue to do so. Being still and taking the time out of my busy life to recognize His hands in all things is so important to my happiness.


"Trust in the Lord, and do good...Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass...Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him...Those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth."
Psalm 37: 3-9

"And all they who have mourned shall be comforted...Therefore, let your hearts be comforted...for all flesh is in mine hands; be still and know that I am God."
D&C 101: 14-16

"Wherefore, fear not even unto death; for in this world your joy is not full, but in me your joy is full. Therefore, care not for the body, neither the life of the body; but care for the soul, and for the life of the soul. And seek the face of the Lord always, that in patience ye may possess your souls, and ye shall have eternal life."
D&C 101: 35-38
