"It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man.
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.
Psalm 118
I think we need constant reminders of this because we think that someone we can see and hear is more trustworthy than God, whom we cannot see, hear or touch. There, I said it. The "princes" we see around us may seem as though they can do more to help us, don't they? But, what is "help" exactly? There is physical help, but then there is a building up of the inside of us...a fortification of our inner strength--and that is where the Real Help comes in. We need to trust that God is constantly fortifying us from the inside. This will give us the grace, courage and strength to tackle anything that occurs to us in our lives. And that is the most valuable help of all. The so-called princes of this world may be able to do some heavy lifting, but that only lasts an instant. Our God works miracles within us and that lasts for eternity! Love, heidi
