This is what the LORD says: Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind, who makes [human] flesh his strength and turns his heart from the LORD. (Jeremiah 17:5 HCSB)
I hope this is a truth that I never forget in my own life -- I hope this is a truth that somehow, somewhere sinks into the heart of mankind. I can't help but think as I go about my daily routines, driving through town, Christmas shopping, or going out to eat; how many people I encounter that never give a passing thought to GOD, unless of course some terror or disaster strikes in their life.
Worldly wisdom says to trust in mankind -- the power of science and our evolving brains. GOD's Word and simple observation of man's history tell me that man's wisdom is insignificant when compared to GOD. History will play out according to GOD's Divine will -- not according to the dictates of man, any man.
I desire (and I hope you do as well) to give my life, fully and completely to CHRIST.
"Take my life and let it be, consecrated LORD to THEE... Take my life it is THINE own, Make it LORD YOUR royal Throne, Make it LORD YOUR royal Throne."
