My Praises are for You alone!

Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength & turn their hearts from the Lord....but blessed are those who trust in the Lord & make Him their hope and confidence.

They are like trees planted along the riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried about long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit.

The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and so desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is? But, I Lord, search all hearts and examine all secret motives. I give all people their due rewards according to what their actions deserve. 

O Lord, if you heal me, I will truly be healed; if you save me, I will truly be saved, My praises are for you alone!

Jeremiah 17: 5,7-10, 14
