Some trust in wagons and some in horses. But we will trust in the name of the Lord, our God. (Psalm 20:7, New Life Version)
Last spring, I bought a newer vehicle. It has a ton of
safety features, all of which blow my mind. It tells me if I veer from my lane
and when someone moves into my blind spot. It yells at me if another car
approaches me when I'm backing up. How can a vehicle know all that is
happening?
Of course, it also has a light that comes on when I
have a low tire – a feature my last three cars have had. Unfortunately, the
light didn't go off even after Hubby put air in the tire. Hmm? How trustworthy
is that?
Or, actually, how much should I trust all these other
features? If I pull over in front of someone because one of those lights didn't
come on, who's liable? The manufacturer? They put enough trust in
all these safety features that my car insurance is lower because they believe
the chances of me having an accident are lower.
But what – or who – can we trust 100% of the time? Who
warns us every time we stray into the other lane? Whose lights always come on when
there is the need to be cautious?
God is the only One we can trust with everything, all
of the time. As long as we put our faith in Him, He will not let us wander. He
will keep us from harm.
