Who can you trust? A young couple pledges life-long fidelity to one another. They will love until death parts them. Before they’ve celebrated their tenth anniversary, one, perhaps both of them, is cheating.
The purchase of a new kitchen appliance is a major expenditure. When it doesn’t function properly, the buyer wants a replacement that works. What he gets is numerous visits from the repair department of the store where he made his purchase.
An ally in the ‘war on terror’ receives billions of dollars in aid yearly—and then it is discovered that the world’s most notorious terror mastermind has been living comfortably in a military town there for six years. The host country, that harbored the international criminal, feigned shock at his presence in their midst. They also protested vehemently when its borders were breached in order to bring the terrorist to justice. Who can you trust?
Life is fraught with the anxiety that comes with the fact that so much of life is beyond accepting at face value. What you see ain’t what you get! But the Christ we serve is a God of honor and truth and integrity. His Word says, “Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall,” Psalm 55:22. You may place your absolute confidence in Him for time and eternity. He never breaks His promises. He never fails.
