In whom or what
In Psalm twenty we read,
"Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God."
Psalm 20:7
The in Psalm we read,
"I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth."
Psalm 121:1,2.
So where is your trust?
We living in the twenty-first century may not trust in chariots or horses but most certainly do have the twenty-first century equivalent. Those being money, and material possessions.
Now there is nothing wrong with having material possessions or being wealthy. The problem comes when those things become more important in your life than God.
The apostle Paul said,
"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." 1 Timothy 6:10.
Notice Paul states it is the “love of money is a root of all kinds of evil”.
A true believer in Christ Jesus is called to love God.
When asked,
"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?"
Jesus replied: " ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
This is the first and greatest commandment." Matthew 22:36-38.
So if you consider yourself to be a Christian in whom or what do you trust?
Please think about it.
