Why it is always better for us to trust in God than humans?
Have you ever reached a point in your life, where it was very hard for others to understand what you are going through. You try to speak to your own mother but she seems lost in translation, you try to seek the guidance of your brother, your own sister and your own friends but they somehow do not have the right words for you. Have you ever reached a point where in the counsel of friends, have no effect and weight on what you are thinking about.
Many times in the the toughest ordeals and trials in life, humans beings will not be able to help us. No guru, nor earth master, institution and organizations and so called earth teacher can get us out of the depth of despair when it arrives.
This is the reason why despite being in a relationship, despite being married, despite having many children or despite being surrounded by so many people around us and admiring us we still feel isolated. Have you ever wondered why celebrities despite achieving fame and having the love of friends surround them still feel the need to end their own life. How could a person surrounded by people around them, with fame and money still believe that life is without meaning?
We at some point will reach this dilemma, when you reach the peak of your ladder, when you already have success and riches, when you already seem to have everything you have been hoping for, you begin to see how meaningless and worthless everything is.
This is because there are also types of problems that only the Supernatural can give assistance to. Its just that many people have forgotten, they trust their riches, their family members, their friends, their lovers, their beauty and fame to get them through the problem and the inner struggle with their mind. But they soon realize, that no one would be able to understand and reach out to them, despite being humans with flesh and blood we are still unable to understand how our mind works. Those who are blessed and with the mercy of God would begin to pray, seek God and realize that they are nothing without God and that it is only the love and relationship with Jesus Christ that gives meaning to it all. If you put your faith and belief in humans, if you feel more attached to your children, more attached to your husband, more attached to your earthly achievements- it will soon crumble for you. If your joy and happiness is attached in humans alone, they will all fail you one day.
For nothing on earth is forever, do not be too charmed by it, it is a mere illusion. The truth is, that it is only God who brings us meaning and life, and to fail to acknowledge this is to author your own demise. Do not fear humans, do not trust humans with your life. Instead seek God’s wisdom and counsel, call the Holy Spirit into your mind and life so you will be guided- seek the path, take the cross and walk with Jesus Christ.
Put your trust in the Lord, and not with humans beings. Trust God even when you don’t understand what is happening. Proverbs 3:5–6, NKJV.
” Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
Perhaps, there is a big project you have been working on, you put all your heart and hopes to it, all your energy and finances and yet you still lost the bid and was not able to get the account despite all your hard work. You at first would be tempted to question what happened. You might even argue with God and become bitter for not being able to get something you have so long for. But remember that we are not the Lord, we are not the One who created the world,the stars and the heavens. What do we know? As humans we understand nothing, instead of arguing and wallowing in pain- let us surrender to God’s will for only God knows what is truly best. Our stories have been written long before we have existed.
Let us not contradict our own fate, our own destiny. Instead let us ask for the wisdom and the heart to remain obedient. Believing that God knows the best reason why certain things in life are happening. Even the sickness, the death, the failures in our marriage we should confess to the Lord, for only the Lord Almighty can solve it for us, if it is God’s will.
It is very hard indeed to submit because as human beings we are willful. We have managed to disobey God for the longest time, since the time of Adam and Eve and the Israelites. Which is why we must continue to pray and seek God’s wisdom and counsel. To ask that our hearts be willing to submit.
For our human minds to be able to understand and have room for patience while the Lord creates and weaves our story according to the way God sees it fit. Let us remember that as humans, we know nothing. We don’t know the inner workings of the Universe. Many scientists claim to know, but the truth is we hardly know anything. Any new discovery just leads us to understand that there is more to discover. Isn’t it better to trust in Our Creator to lead us to the path, instead of relying on fellow human beings to give us direction.
Your family, your wife, your husband, your sister, your brother, your neighbor, your boss is as lost as you. How can they help you when they are not God? When they themselves are at the mercy of destiny too. Let us instead accept the fact that Real peace or Perfect Peace can only result from trusting in God. It is found in Isaiah 26:3. NIV
“You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trust in You.”
Put your trust in God, not human beings. It’s in the Bible, Jeremiah 17:5–7 NKJV. “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the LORD. For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when good comes, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited. Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose hope is the LORD.”
It is folly to put your trust in wealth and money, put your trust in God who provides for you. 1 Timothy 6:17, NKJV. “Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.”
Don’t allow Pride to Destroy you. Seek the Lord God Almighty who made you, for only God knows who you are to your deepest core, and Only God is the Savior.
