That is one of God’s character traits.<\/p>\n

Thus it should be a character trait of each of God’s children.<\/p>\n

The confidence others have in me should be rewarded with faithfulness on my part.<\/p>\n

Otherwise…<\/p>\n

“Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint”<\/font><\/b> (19).<\/p>\n

As an aside, it’s interesting to me to read this verse this morning. Less than three hours from now, a memorial procession is to begin for Captain Tom Tennant of the Woodburn Police Department (Oregon). He was killed a week ago this evening in a bomb explosion at the freeway West Coast Bank in Woodburn, Oregon (my former home town just down the road nine miles). Also killed was Bill Hakim, a state trooper in the Oregon State Police. Critically injured was Woodburn’s police chief, who is still hospitalized in critical condition.<\/p>\n

Officers Tennant, Hakim, and Russell — faithful men in time of trouble.<\/p>\n

God bless Chief Russell and grant him renewed health and strength.<\/p>\n

And God bless and comfort and sustain his family and those of the two fallen officers.<\/p>\n

May God also keep and comfort and bless all other law enforcement officers…particularly today as they honor and mourn their fallen comrades.<\/p>\n

And may God develop a little more His faithfulness in me today.<\/p>\n
