NO TRUST

“And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? And who gave thee this authority to do these things? And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things”

Mark 11: 28, 29 King James Version

How many times do we fly in an airplane, ride in a bus or taxi, and ask to see the driver’s or pilot’s license before we leave? We have more trust in men than we do in the Saviour of the world. When we sit down in a chair, we don’t even think about it. We trust that it won’t break, yet we question Jesus and His Love for us. May God forgive us!

We will never be able to accomplish anything that will last without Jesus. Yes, we may do things but they won’t have the power and authority behind them that Jesus can give when we do them in His Name. We can trust Jesus to walk with us every step of the way. He will be faithful to guide, protect, and comfort us through every trial.

We don’t question our parent’s authority when they tell us to do things. We just do them, yet we question Jesus who died for us and has the right and authority to tell us everything. We have more trust in the weather reports than we do in Jesus. Jesus has told us that He is coming back for us and to be ready, however we treat it as something that will happen in the future. He could come back even as I type this.

My bags are packed and I have a reservation for Heaven. I made a heart commitment to Jesus as my personal Saviour. Are you ready to meet Him? Have you invited the Christ of Calvary into your heart? If not, do it now before it’s too late.
