![]() “Now on whom do you trust?” (Isaiah 36:5) ”Let us try to bring others to trust where we have trusted. When a man finds something that is good and safe, he likes to recommend it to his friends.” What will we say to our friends, families, and neighbors when they ask us, “In whom do we trust and why?” Are we up to the task to eagerly share why we trust in our Holy Lord God? “I trust the Son. Very God of very God is He—the man Christ Jesus. I trust in Him to take away all my sins, for He suffered my penalty upon the cross. I trust Him to put all my sins away forever because he sacrificed Himself for me, for he remission of my sins. I trust Him to wrap me up in His perfect righteousness, and to adorn me with all His excellencies. He is my intercessor—so often as I pray to present my prayers and desires before His Father’s throne. I believe Him to be my resurrection and my life, that, though I die, yet I may live again. I expect Him to be my advocate at the last, to plead my cause, and to stand before God and justify me. I trust Him with all that I have, no credit to myself, no confidence in my own tears, or prayers, or preaching, or willings, or doings, or believing—I trust Him, for what He is, what He has done, what He has promised yet to do—I rely on Him, the incarnate Son of God.” We trust Him!
