WHO DO YOU TRUST?

WHO DO YOU TRUST?




Who do you TRUST


LOOK at any coin
or US currency
And somewhere on it
it says:


“IN GOD WE TRUST”


I suggest to you
That that is the reason
We have so much TROUBLE
In our country
So much trouble
In our world


We really don't trust God
Anymore
We want to put
ALL of our trust
In ourselves


Well I got some news
For you
No one-no human being
Can do it alone
NOT without HELP from God
Not without help
From others


Psalm 56 says:


“NOW that I know
That God is with me
In God I TRUST” Psalm 56:10, 12


WE can make it
OUR country can make it
OUR WORLD can make it


But NOT before
We LEARN
To rely on God


Psalm 56 says
GOD is on our side


THE GOD OF LOVE
Calls you and me
LOVES you and me
And finds us
Unique and delightful


Just imagine
WHAT would really happen
How we would
LIVE OUR LOVES
IF we really believed this


And psalm 37 says:


“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” Psalm 37:3-4


TRUST in God
He LOVES YOU
He wants
What is BEST for you


He is a GOD
That is more than
Merely with us


He is a God
THAT is on our side


And in Proverbs 3
It says:


“TRUST in the Lord
With ALL your heart
Lean not
On your own understanding” Proverbs 3:5


The writers of the psalms
And proverbs
DON'T say


“In my own goodness
And intelligence I TRUST”


OR


“In good health-and material possessions
I trust”


They say
“IN GOD WE TRUST”


Put a penny
Or a $ bill
In your pocket
And any time
YOUR FAITH is weakening
PULL it out and read
“IN GOD WE TRUST”


Dear Lord
We PRAY that we always remember


YOU are on my side
It is you that I trust


And we pray for the GRACE
To live by:


“IN GOD WE TRUST”
