“So just do your part and let God handle how He supports you and provides you with adequate resources. Since He has promised and He never lies, He will not lie to you.”

Martin Luther · The Catholic Catechism

Scripture

Psalm 37:5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act.

Reflection

In leading my brothers and fulfilling my responsibilities as a group leader, I often feel overwhelmed, worried that my exhortation and care are insufficient. However, Luther reminds me that I only need to fulfill my responsibilities and leave them in God's hands; the results don't have to be entirely my responsibility. As the Psalm says, "Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will bring it to pass." God's promise remains unchanged; he will take control after I have done my best. I can confidently fulfill my responsibilities while trusting in God's wisdom and provision.
