In God We Trust

Oh, the many - even trivial and silly - things in which we trust these days! We feel so confident and secure in these things until one day ... they fail or are no longer there. One of my favorite songs is "Oh The Deep Deep Love" - the chorus goes like this: "Oh the deep deep love - All I need and trust - Is the deep deep love of Jesus." The song's verse describes Jesus' love as unmeasured, boundless, full, surpassing, underneath and all around. The psalmist writes, "I have trusted in Your steadfast love" (Psalm 13:5, ESV). In case you've not noticed, there are few things to which we can apply the word "steadfast" - steady and immovable. God introduced Himself to Moses as "I AM" and Moses testified that God was his dwelling place and and "underneath are the everlasting arms" (ESV). In what do you trust? In Whom do you have all confidence? Where do you find your greatest security? If your answer is anyone or anything other than God Himself, expect failure and disappointment. That phrase on our coins and car tags, say "in God we trust" ... do you?
