God's got a rep to maintain

Name: Nate
Scripture: Psalm 23:3
"He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name sake."

OAP:  God is consistent.  

What if God's character wasn't?  What if we had to be concerned that one minute God had good intentions for us, and the next He wanted to wipe us from the face of the earth?  So much uncertainty.   Many ancient religions (and modern ones too) had this view that you have to appease God or a higher being.   But scripture speaks constantly of God's consistent character.  Though His actions or influence may be misunderstood, we can trust that his intentions are in our best interests, according to His will.  Not only that, he has a desire to be consistent, and communicate that consistency to us.

God, help me to trust in your consistency despite circumstances.  Open my eyes to see Your movement in my life despite when things don't seem to be going my way, or I feel like I just can't get ahead.
