Cursed is the man who puts his trust in man, but blessed is the man who trusts and hopes in the Lord.

Scripture reminds us that if we put our trust in man he will fail us, we will not be able to see the goodness of the Lord, and our hearts will depart from him, but if we trust in God, he will not fail us; we shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spread out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but whose leaves shall be green and who will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit, for the those who hope and trust in the Lord, will abound in good things. Praise the Lord!
