It
is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
Psalms 118:8 (KJV)
How vain it is for us to place our confidence—our trust, our hope, our
security, our encouragement, our support in man. Man will fail us, it is
inevitable for he is finite. Plus, fearing man produces no freedom, but only
bondage and a hindrance to obediently following the Lord. Instead of fearing
man, may you trust in the Lord and serve (fear) Him only. Place your confidence
in His! Place your trust.
