Who do you trust?
The cashier at the service station? Your postman? Maybe the butcher or your doctor …
Who do you love?
Your spouse … children … parents or other treasured family members?
Where does God fall in your menagerie of loved and trusted people? At the top, or does he get wedged in toward the bottom?
“Sure, God. I trust you, but here’s my backup plan.”
And then there’s salvation and modeling our actions and lives after that of Jesus … well, it’s a different millennium, isn’t it? The world is no longer like it was back then …
“Jesus said to them, ‘If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.’” – John 8:42
This verse rests on five words: “If God were your Father …”
So, now, who do you trust? Where does Jesus fall on your love calendar?
“If God were your Father …”
How do we make God our Father? It’s called salvation. It started with a child in a manger, grew to a man on a cross, and culminated with his resurrection and salvation for all mankind.
Jesus, from the manger to the cross, and now he wants us to join him as sons and daughters of the Almighty God. Our future is all about our Love for God and our trust in the Master to be the Savior that he promised us he would be.
To keep it in perspective … who do you love?
