Psalm 20:7 "Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God."
David writes that many people trust in power and security-chariots and horses-that sort of thing. I suppose that's about all you could trust in three thousand years ago! But David asserts that he trusts in the name of the Lord, not in military might.
My hope and trust ought to be found in Christ. My faith and security does not rest in our government, our military or any form of earthly power. Those powers are temporary. Jesus alone provides my hope. How can I trust in him more today?
Dear Jesus, help me trust you in all things today. Amen.
