"7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. 8 They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright."
This passage was just another reminder of where my trust needs to be. Just as the accumulation of chariots and horses gave the ancient nations a sense of security so does my bank account, my relationships, my insurance policies and my achievements. The truth rings out very clear in verse 8; they (those who put their trust in chariots and horses) collapse and fall, but we (those who trust in the name of the Lord our God) rise and stand upright. Praise God for being a gracious God and guiding our hearts back to trust in His name alone. Praise Him for drawing those who are called His children back before we collapse and fall. His name alone is all we need!
