If we love God, we will trust Him. Do we trust Him enough to accept His humility, love and forgiveness in our own life as the source of our security, rather than the money and power of this world? Do we realize that since God loves us enough to sacrifice His life for our sins, He surely will help us in our needs? Furthermore, do we seek righteousness because of the rewards we expect it to bring to us or do we seek it because we love God? Furthermore, do we try to gain our own righteousness or do we accept it as a gift from God; which we receive in response to our faith in God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More so with God than it is with your best and closest friend or family member for He (our Father) is closer and dearer. God is not fickle, He is faithful and the only One that is completely trustworthy. We have no righteousness but Jesus'. It is His blood that covers us and makes us righteous. There is none righteous no not one but Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
