TRUSTING JESUS

” IT IS BETTER TO TAKE REFUGE IN THE LORD THAN TO TRUST IN PEOPLE.” PSALM 118:8

WE ALL HAVE CLOSE FRIENDS WHO WE GO TO FOR ADVICE OR COMFORT IN TROUBLED TIMES. BUT THE LORD TELLS US THAT WE SHOULD TAKE REFUGE IN HIM IN TIMES OF TROUBLE, AND NOT PEOPLE. I DON’T BELIEVE THAT MEANS TO ABANDON OUR FRIENDS BUT I DO BELIEVE THAT IT MEANS WE SHOULD GO TO HIM FIRST. HE SHOULD BE OUR GO TO FRIEND. JESUS NEEDS TO BE OUR FRIEND, OUR SAVIOR, OUR HEALER AND OUR FORGIVER. WE NEED TO TRUST HIM AS A FRIEND. WE NEED TO TALK WITH HIM AS THOUGH HE IS A FRIEND. WE NEED EVERYDAY CONVERSATION WITH HIM. YES, WE CAN GO TO OUR EARTHLY FRIENDS FOR ADVICE BUT WE SHOULD REMEMBER WHO REALLY CAN HELP UP. JESUS! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
