TRUST Psalm 31:6-8

I hate those who cling to worthless idols; as for me, I trust in the LORD. I will be glad and rejoice in your love, for you saw my affliction and knew the anguish of my soul. You have not given me into the hands of the enemy but have set my feet in a spacious place.

I hate those who cling to worthless idols 
Deuteronomy 32:21  For their rock is not like our Rock, as even our enemies concede.

as for me, I trust in the LORD 
Psalm 115:9  All you Israelites, trust in the LORD--he is their help and shield.
Proverbs 3:5  Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; ...
Proverbs 28:26  Those who trust in themselves are fools, but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe.
Isaiah 26:4  Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD himself, is the Rock eternal.
John 14:1  "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me."

I will be glad and rejoice in your love, for you saw my affliction 
Psalm 13:3-4  Look on me and answer, LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death, and my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

and knew the anguish of my soul 
Psalm 25:17  Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish.
Luke 22:44  And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.

You have not given me into the hands of the enemy 
Deuteronomy 32:30  How could one man chase a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?

but have set my feet in a spacious place 
2 Samuel 22:20  "He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me." (also Psalm 18:19)
