WHO DO WE TRUST
2 Maccabees 8:18
“For they trust in arms and bold acts,” he said, “but we trust in Almighty God, who with only one nod is able to overthrow both those who come against us and the entire world.”
Personal Challenge
One of the joys of reading the Old Testament is to see how many times the people of old were rescued or redeemed because they recognized their sin, turned from it, and put their trust in God. Our God is trustworthy, even if we are not. We have come to a point where we put more trust in our government, our job, or the wealth that we have been given by God. All of this is fleeting and not trustworthy. We need to let go of these things of the world and hold onto our God alone. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
