But Jesus did not commit Himself unto them, because He knew all men, and needed not that any should testify of man: for He knew what was in man.
John 2:24-25
Our Lord trusted no man, yet He was never suspicious, never bitter.
Our Lord’s confidence in God and in what His grace could do for any man, was so perfect that He despaired of no one.
If our trust is placed in human beings, we shall end in despairing of everyone.
MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST BY OSWALD CHAMBERS
Where is my trust this day?
It must remain in You, O God, or I am lost.
I know what You have done in my life.
I know what You can do for any who seek after You.
I pray for all those who do not know You, who are facing each and everyday in their own strength. What a tragedy! I pray that You would surround them with those who do know You. I pray that they would be inundated with messages of Your love so that they cannot ignore the fact that You love them, that You sent Your Son, Jesus Christ to die on a cross for their sin, that they might have eternal life with You. I pray that they would choose life, a life lived for Christ.
I pray for all those who serve You. I pray that they will keep their eyes on You and not give in to the pressures of this day. I pray that they will remain steadfast in their faith and trust that no matter what happens You have them safe in Your hands.
I thank You Lord, for this new day, for another day to serve You.
