Don't Be Fooled, Trust God Always!

The Bible point for the second day of "Sky" VBS is: "No matter how you feel trust God." In other words, if you are afraid, anxious, or perplexed, trust God. If you are happy, self-confident, or secure in your world, don't be fooled; trust God.

The Bible verse to support the Bible point is:

"'Do not let your hearts be troubled.
You believe in God;
believe also in me.'"
John 14:1 (NIV)

(Jesus and God are the same person.) Many times, people only turn to God when they are in desperate need, and then they struggle to put their faith in Him. However, this is not how we are to live. We are to trust God every day of our lives. We are never to put our faith in ourselves, in our abilities, in other people, or in the world around us, but God only. He is the only One we can completely trust.

Our world is like a decaying grape.

We are sinful in our nature, but God is pure in His. Our world is full of corruptness and evil, and our earth is decaying, but God's world is perfect and sinless, and His Kingdom is eternal. When we have God, why be foolish and put our trust in something temporal or in someone imperfect? Put our trust in Him at all times, no matter what we feel, so when the troubles come, we won't be grappling with our faith in God.
