Do not put your trust in princes,in mortal men, who cannot save. - Psalm 146:3
Everyone is sinner, but it is human to a certain degree to put trust in one another. God is the only one that is worthy of our trust. Moses tells us in The Book of Numbers that "God is not a man, that he should lie,nor a son of man, that he should change his mind." Numbers 23:19.
When we trust someone too much, time will come when we find out different. We will become very disappointed. When man began to put another on a pedestal it will lead disillusion. The fact is that we are not perfect, therefore the one to trust is Our Savior.
This post can remind us of a small child that beleive and trust in their parents until they are older. It will come a time when this trust will go beyond what is humanly possible. We cannot trust each other too much, not even self.
Heavenly Father, Help us to have hunger for you, yet be filled.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Psalm 48:14
John 14:27

Very Well Said Dear!!
Hi Msy:)
Amazing wisdom to attain everlasting peace and happiness.
Yet in a close relationship, it goes without saying that most of us automatically tend to trust each other because we are human beings and we need companions. Who else can we trust other than the ones close to us. It is quite possible that we will be let down at some point or the other. Yet we have no alternative but to trust the person closest to us. So many marriages have broken up, yet God gets us another good person to carry on the life in this world. So many separated couples have found good partners later on in their life. We have to wait and pray and God knows what to do. Looking at every one with suspicion will only lead to an unsettled life and loss of peace.
It is good to cling to God for He never lets us down at any time. He will help us even to find a good partner. It takes time and HE has his own mysterious ways of doing it. We can conquer all our trials and tribulations if we have unshakable faith in God.
We have come from God and to God we have to return one day leaving all our earthly belongings and relationships. So God should be our ultimate goal and everlasting source of joy and happiness. Yet with our frailties and shortcomings as human beings we tend to accumulate a lot of baggage and relationships in this world.
Your post is very inspiring, interesting and thought provoking.
Have a nice day May:)

God is so worthy of our trust. I'm grateful that He gives me the faith to trust in Him.
this is very true. HE is the only one.
I trust God because He is God and man alone is limited and fallible.
