Psalms 118:8
It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in humans.
“You know the bit, the lady fair and the knight on the white horse. Let me tell you something, it’s kind of dangerous putting those knights up on white horses. – They’re likely to slip off, you know” (Bob Wallace, White Christmas).
White Christmas is one of my favorite movies. I don’t just watch it at Christmas. As a matter of fact, I have it on right now as I curl up to write this blog. Bob (Bing Crosby) is telling Betty (Rosemary Clooney) that people aren’t perfect. Mistakes are made and misunderstandings happen. This of course is setting up the conflict that arises in the movie. Eventually, everything is worked out in the movie and Betty puts her knight back up on his stead.
We cannot put all our hopes and faith in other human beings. They will fail, just like we will fail them. This doesn’t mean we never trust or love someone. We just can’t put them in God’s place. He is only person that we can put up on the white horse. He will never fall off. He will never let us down. We have a shiny knight on a trusted white stead who will never fail us.
Lord, I need a knight right now and I am putting all my faith and hope in You.
