I Believe, YOU

Psalm 146:3 "Don't put your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help."

These days and times it is hard to believe anything someone has to say. Lies are quick to be told and telling the truth seems to be a thing of the past. Even with so much going on in the world around us, we still choose to believe in people. Is it because we are crazy? Why would we decide to still open our hearts, minds, and ears to people even after we have been wronged by others? Currently, my generation has been hurt so much that we take pride in cutting people off. I mean we boast about trust issues and not catching feelings as if it is a good thing. Only if we read more of The Word, we would then find healing and answers to these questions.

It is not crazy to trust again after being hurt because it is not man that we are solely trusting, but God. Now, I definitely agree not to trust everyone. However, we also should not let trusting the wrong people detour us from trusting the right people. Man, as in mankind will hurt, upset, and get on our nerves from time to time. That is inevitable because none of us are perfect. What we must do is ask God to discern which people are worth being upset with because we will be upset with someone one way or another. So, the scripture urges us not to put our trust in man. With the Ferguson issue and many other crisis, America tends to rely on the President more than Jesus. President Obama can't fix everything and he definitely is far from perfection. In good sense, it would be obvious to trust and depend on The ONLY Perfect Being we know, God. Everything God says is true whether we understand His Will or not. His Ways are not for us to understand, that's where Faith comes in because if we understood it, Faith would be no longer needed.

Life is like a test. In school, have you ever had a cheat sheet given to you not really knowing if the answers were correct? You just trusted that the person gave you correct information to pass. Now, I do not condone cheating, but if we can trust the person with a cheat sheet, why is it difficult to believe God? Here it is God gives us all the answers to life questions and we disregard His Word as if there is no truth in It. When we need help, where is man? It takes God to show us how to help one another because we are naturally selfish. Just as Kim stated, your fave celeb is not God. They do not care about you like you want to believe they do. Actually no one can care for you like God can. The more we get that in our spirit, the easier it is to believe in Him no matter what life may throw at us. Man is limited, but God is LIMITLESS. Who would you rather believe?
