Today's Top Quotes"Hope is called the anchor of the soul (Hebrews 6:19), because it gives stability to the Christian life.

Dear Lord, help me to put trust in you instead of confidence in men, exactly as this Psalm says. Although you created everyone, we are not perfect, and we often fail even those who have put their trust in us. Help me to realize when I am putting too much confidence in a person, and help me to instead turn that confidence into trust in you. In Jesus' name, amen.
