Micah 7:5 "Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom"
Jeremiah 9:4 "Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders."
Its very important not to put our trust in people. No matter how good a person may be, the bottom line is they are not God. For that very reason we must not put our confidence in man. Man is not like God. Man changes and God does not change. Humans will disappoint you even if they do not intend to do so.
Work hand in hand with people, love people, forgive people but do not put your confidence in them.This week I encourage you to put your confidence in God, it will help keep you in perfect peace and help you deal with disappointment
Its a good thing to trust God with your friends and family. Trust God that He will cause them to do the right thing or treat you right. If you trust God with them you will be able to accept and handle anything they do better because you will believe its from God. A challenge that you simply have to overcome by the power of the Lord Jesus since you have your confidence in Him.
Jeremiah 17:7-8 "Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit".
