Our Trustworthy God

Thought for the day
Genesis 40:23 Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgot him.

Once again we see Joseph "forgotten" by man. It seems everyone he counted on let him down: his dad, brothers, Potipher, and now Pharaoh's butler. Psalms 146:3 tells us to "put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help." It then goes on to say in verse 5 that "Happy is he that has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:" Man may fail you whether purposely or otherwise, but the Lord is the only true refuge that can be totally depended upon.

Remember "the best of men are men at best". If you are being disappointed by someone in your life today, take them down from the exalted position to which you have elevated them and reserve that place for God alone- He is the only one worthy of it!
