How blessed
is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
Whose hope is in the Lord his God
Whose hope is in the Lord his God
Psalm 146:5 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
This is from a
wonderful psalm that praises God for His faithfulness and shows the danger and
pitfalls of overly trusting people. People are finite, they only live a short
time, and are sinful from the beginning. But God, He made the earth and
everything on it, the universe and all it contains. He is completely faithful
and just, and a generous provider. He performs miracles and provides comfort
and courage. He gives protection and support, and punishes wrong doing in its
time. He is the eternal God who will reign forever. The reasons to trust and
hope in God instead of people are blatant and endless. What can man do that God
cannot? How can man expect to do anything better than the Almighty? Why would
we not trust God? Seek Him for help, hope in Him alone and be blessed!
