Trouble with Trusting

Read:  Psalm 116 / Proverbs 12 / Job 17 /Matthew 12

 

Psalm 116:11 I said in my haste, All men are liars.

Proverbs 12:5 The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

Job 17:15 Where is now my hope?... who shall see it?

Matthew 12:21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

 

The trouble with trusting in men

Is that there are many who lie.

So why should we trust them again?

And how shall we test their reply?

 

The truth of the Lord has been shown

By prophecies kept which were spoken.

In contrast, the liar is known

By promises made which are broken.
