Good morning.
Society has become more skeptical of everyone and everything. People don’t trust the government. Employees don’t trust employers. Customers don’t trust businesses. And let’s be honest, many folk don’t trust their churches anymore.
When one gets down to the bottom of the decline of trust today, we find that our society is suffering from “truth decay”.
Truth and trust go hand in hand. You trust people who tell you the truth, and you don’t trust people who don’t. Our lack of trust causes tremendous stress in life.
We were born to trust. God wired us with the capacity and desire to trust in something greater than ourselves because he wanted us to have a relationship with him.
If we don’t trust God, we will create something else to trust. It may be a diploma on the wall, money in the bank, our spouse, or a hobby.
The Bible says in Psalm 20:7, “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God”.
So, as we face the future, let's put a peg in the ground; decide to trust the Lord. He is trustworthy. He will do what He said He will do.
Blessings.
Mike and Daphne
