Who can you trust? (Audio)

We live in a world where we are constantly confronted with the challenge of whether to trust people or not? That's often hard for us because we frequently get let down and so many people turn out to be less than trustworthy. So, who can you trust? It's not unreasonable to maintain that trust needs to be earned; that people need to prove that they're trustworthy. We can join the Psalmist in his confident assertion that God can be trusted, that we can put our hope in him, that we can look to him to help and defend us, that we can call on him in times of trouble and know that he'll be there for us. We can be confident of that because of the cross. In Jesus' loving sacrifice for us, we see God's faithful love and his total gracious commitment to us. There we see that he can be trusted. We mightn't always understand what God is doing or always be pleased with how things are working out for us on a day-to-day basis, but this we know: God loves us. He is with us, and he wants the best for us! He has proven himself trustworthy, so trust in him and lean into the embrace of his grace!
