Satisfaction in God

³ Do not put your trust in princes,
    in human beings, who cannot save.
Psalms 146:3

Only trust in God as God is the only being that is eternal, does not change and is perfect.

My tendencies as a fallen being relies on others for support, acceptance and comfort. When I'm struggling and in my dark times, I don't look towards God for comfort, but a friend. I confide in them and expect comfort and acceptance. All of which is good if the other person reciprocates, but when these people you trust, fall because of their sin, it leaves me devastated  I recall my last relationship feeling thus so, as I put them above the relationship I should have had with God. My identity was in the relationship and once that was stripped, I was left empty, confused and hurt. God is eternal and God does not change, I need to place my identity in Him, thus when the storms of life hits, I'm not disappointed in the fallacies others have being humans, but trust that God will take care the situation.

Jesus, forgive me for putting human relationships above yours. I pray that I would find identity and solace in you and you only. Provide me with the right people in my life, so that I would have accountability during my times of struggle.

In Jesus Name
Amen
