Psalm 146:3–4 (ESV) —
3 Put not your trust in princes,
in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.
4 When his breath departs, he returns to the earth;
on that very day his plans perish.
NOTE: There are a
lot of things we trust in rather than in God. Sometimes it is people, either
because of their high position (they can make things happen) or because of
their world-renowned skill (the surgeon can make the person whole) or because
of the charisma of their character (surely people will listen to him and things
will be different). Ultimately, God is in charge of the universe, our galaxy,
our small solar system, our planet, our nation, our family, and us. It seems so
impossible for the God of the universe to take our interests to heart, but he
does. In an unbelievable way, God is not only the God of the universe, but he
is my God too. He is personally involved in my life for his good will and
glory. That is hard to understand at times. A famous person might barely
remember me, but God knows me fully and always remembers me.
