Trust

 Greetings to you all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ,

     Psalm 37:3-5 says, “Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.  Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.   Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” 

     In whom can you trust in the present culture in which we live?

     When I go to the VA in Salem, Virginia, I usually have lunch with a friend and as my daughter pushes my wheelchair down to the “canteen” we pass by a bulletin board that has been advertising a class in “Ethics.”  I am finding  that there now needs to be classes in such a subject as the nation has done away with ethics and morals.  You can save turles, whales, puppies and trees, but you can’t allow a child to be born that isn’t wanted.  The Bible clearly states how God knew certain people even when they were in the womb.  That, obviously, is before birth but the American and indeed even the world, thinks it is okay to abort a living creation of God.  Something is amiss in the world today where the life of a sea creature is more valuable than a living child in the womb.  Same sex marriage is also another abomination that is clearly condemned in the scripture yet people today think it is right.  So, whom do you trust?  Can  you trust your own congress?  Can you trust your senators and representatives that theta re speaking for you?  Can you trust your local police officer?  When I was a child, the police and firemen were looked up to by every kid on the block.  It’s not so today.

      The above passage speaks about ultimate trust and where it should be.  The only One you can completely trust is the Lord Himself.  WE ae also to delight ourselves in the Lord and tgo Commit our ways unto Him.  If no one can supply ethics, then go back to the original source, which is God Himself.  Sometimes, the moral fiber of our people is off base such as it is now when you can read of babies being found in trash cans, sexual activity that is beyohd description, murders and violence in communities because the is no value on human life anymore.  It seems that people assume life is like a video game in which you can blow up anything you want until it says, “Game Over.’  At some point, God is going to say, “Game Over” for the world, the rapture will occur, tribulation will come and then the millennium and finally a new heaven and a new earth.  Every knee will bow before the Lord Jesus Christ and judgment will take place.  Our morals and our ethics will be made known to the universe and our rewards will follow and in many cases, it will be an eternity without God.  Praise God today that you can trust Him with your life and your soul for all eternity.
