How can you TRUST in this world of illusory dreams, broken promises, and outright lies? Words themselves are no longer capable vehicles for sharing confidence, but have become traps/weapons to ensnare/belittle/expose/degrade others; not just their ideas/opinions, but cancel their very persons/identities? Spoken - written words –are you a man/woman of your word? …but today, even those terms are called into question! At one time, people gave their word as truth + backed it up with a handshake + an honest life + reputation. Others could trust you + what you said to be truth + then have confidence to build/grow/establish relationship. But in our present fear-gripped society, words have lost both their truth, meaning and confidence. They’ve been hammered into weapons to expose, rather than reveal + love.
We have lost our ability to trust… not just officials in government, media, churches, the ‘experts’, but one another. All the more NOW, we need to return to what is trustworthy + rediscover how to trust: God: His Word + Spirit! He is faithful to do what He’s promised!
