Remember " In God We Trust"

Blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit." Jeremiah 17:7-8

I have been young, and now I am old; Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, or his descendants begging bread. Psalms 37:25

This weeks financial news was a sobering reminder of just how things of this world can fall apart at the seams and be so "scary".......I also received very sad news of the death of my cousin who was only 39 years old...........it is concerning and hard news to bear, this temporary life is not where we need to put our hope and confidence.....Putting our Trust in the Lord is the only way to be truly "set for life". People may not know what to do, but God does,
The Lord tells us in Jeremiah 33:3 " Call to Me, and I will answer you and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know."

And Psalm 46 says, "God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change and though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; Though its waters roar and foam, Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, The holy dwelling places of the Most High. God is in the midst of her, she will not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns. The nations made an uproar, the kingdoms tottered;He raised His voice, the earth melted. The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Come, behold the works of the Lord, Who has wrought desolation's in the earth. He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariots with fire. " Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold.

So I can put my money in various banks and trusts.......and I am alive and breathing so far today........but real security is knowing that my hope and confidence is in the glory of God Almighty , He is eternal. And He cares about us.
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you.
Jesus said in Matthew 11:28 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden , and I will give you rest."
