Today's scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:15-19
Sometimes I read several verses, and I see all kinds of application. Words that
affirm. Phrases that convict. Other times, just one or two words jump out at
me, and I spend time meditating on just those few words.
Such is the case today. Paul makes a good point about not vacillating when
moving forward with God’s plan, but the words that speak the most to me today?
God is faithful.
It seems like there is so little in this world in which we can put our faith.
People let us down. Governments crumble. Things fall apart. Stock markets
crash.
Nothing or no one is worthy of our trust, and so we just don’t trust anyone or
anything. Then we won’t be hurt.
But that’s no way to live ... and that’s not how we were created to live. God
created us for relationship with Him and with others. And yet, if people and things let us down, if they prove to be unfaithful, in
whom or in what can we put our trust? Who will be faithful, no matter what?
Our God will be. Always.
He will love us everlastingly. He will never, ever leave us alone. He will be
by our sides through the good and will carry us through the bad.
He is faithful, when no one or nothing else is.
In God we really can trust!
