They say that faith is only as good as the object it is placed in. So today what is there that is trustworthy? We’ve all been let down by politicians, technology, and even the people we love at different times. We’ve learned to be skeptical of what we read on the internet, and no one wants to be gullible. We’ve even learned that we can’t always trust ourselves. So what’s left to trust in?
The very first followers of Jesus had these same questions and were searching for something to hold on to. A person we know as the Apostle Paul wrote two young men, living in the city of Ephesus, to hold on to what is true. In his letters to Timothy and Titus he encourages them several times saying, “The saying is trustworthy…”
He uses that phrase five times to precede a bedrock truth he wants Timothy and Titus to hold fast. We’re looking at one each week.
This week’s “trustworthy saying” fuels our hope in God in times of suffering, sorrow, and setbacks. Have you ever wondered if following Jesus is worth it? Where in your life are you overwhelmed with wondering if you can make it through? This week’s saying may just be used by God to give you courage, hope, and peace.
