Psalm 37, The words COMMIT and TRUST stood out to me while reading this, and the bolded portion too. Wow. I feel like these verses just speak volumes.
Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Be still for the Lord and wait for Him patiently. - Psalm 37: 3-7
