A Message You Can Trust

Messages are being hurled at us from every direction, and in the
chaos of life, we often take them in without much contemplation. At
other times, we're attracted to a particular message because it's what
we want to hear, regardless of its truth. For those of us who struggle
with trust issues, it's difficult to know which messages to trust.



Really
the trust we struggle with is often over the messenger. After all, if
we can't trust the messenger, how are we supposed to trust what they
say?



Thankfully, there is a message which can be trusted, and it's
author is completely trustworthy. The Bible is God's Word to a world He
created and loves. It's a message of hope and redemption. It's a
revelation of who God is and His perfect plan to save lost and dying
people.



So in this world where we are constantly bombarded by
subtle and not-so-subtle messages, we have a place of refuge. When
something thrown into our path confuses us, we have a place to turn.



Instead
of accepting everything at face value, hold every tidbit of information
up to the divine light of God's Word. He loves you and knows what's
best for you. His message is the only one you can really trust.



I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. (Psalm 119:11, ESV)



Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. (Psalm 119:105, NIV)
