The Lord says: “Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the Lord. “Jeremiah 17:5
🔴 WHO ARE YOU TRUSTING?
We dearly love Broderick, our son-in-love (law). He is a God-fearing man, husband of our adorable daughter, father of two of the seven of our cherished grandchildren, hard worker, dependable, and very artistic. He is, in technological terms, “a friend” of mine on another Bible Study Application.
Broderick, from time to time, creates some of the most breathtaking scenes to go with specific scriptures on this site. It is something I know I can depend on for encouragement and inspiration. Sharing our ‘God Shots,’ it is easy to have a friendship. Most importantly, we know who to trust in, and that is our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
While it is comforting to know that we can depend on those we love to step up and be responsible for those God has placed in their care and live out the obligations clearly stated in God’s Word. “He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord.” Proverbs18:22. The two of them have made it easy for us to be doting grandparents because they adhered to Proverbs 22:6 “Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.”
We have faith and trust God, knowing that “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighted in his way.” Psalm 37:23.
