Psalm 55

It seems that David is in anguish again... He has been betrayed by his "companion"... Ps 55:20 "My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant."

To be betrayed by someone you trusted is even more painful than being humiliated by your enemy... Even Daivid agrees: Ps55:12-14 "If an enemy were insulting me, I could endure it; if a foe were raising himself against me, I could hide from him. But it is you, a man like myself, my companion, my close friend, with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship as we walked with the throng at the house of God."

When even your most trusted companion has betrayed you, who can you trust? David cries to God to take vengeance for him... And he ends by telling us the best solution: Cast your cares onto the Lord. Ps55:22 "Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall."

So when there is a point of your life when you feel that you have been betrayed and humiliated by your closest friends and cannot trust anyone anymore, remember God is always waiting for you to cast all your burdens onto Him... He'll take the necessary action needed... He's the only one that really can be trusted...

Trusting in God always,
