     | 8,924 views

    Trust in God is more than a concept, it’s an action and a faith-filled journey that brings us closer to God. It is a deep-seated belief in His omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence, and love, understanding that His plans for us surpass our very comprehension.

    In these verses we find that the people did not understand the depth of their sins. They did not turn from their idols, regret their sins or pledge to make changes (vv. l-2). It seems that they thought God’s wrath would only last for a few days. Little di
