The proof of the pudding is in the eating. You can only judge the quality of something by tasting, trying or using it. The goodness of God can be experienced by all who come to put their trust in Him. In this verse of Scripture, David declares: "blessed is the man that trusts in him (the Lord)" and challenges us to confirm the veracity of his declaration for ourselves.  

Everyone born into this world has a specific assignment to accomplish. When you become born again, it is your responsibility to find out what you are called to do - God's purpose for your life. That is your calling and primary assignment from the Lord. Jesus said, "To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, ..." - John 18:37b. Why were you born?

Jesus the Son of man is also the Word of God. Therefore, it is the Word of God the Father, spoken or revealed by Jesus the Son of man that enables a man to be drawn to the Lord. Having been drawn to the Lord by the Word of God, man is given the opportunity to make an eternal choice: to either accept him or reject him. It is only believers in Jesus that will experience resurrection unto eternal life.

Beloved brethren, we are commanded to cast our burden upon the Lord who has promised to sustain us. Having created us to depend on Him, the Lord hates to see us attempting to carry our burdens because He knows that we do not have the capacity to do so. Disobedience to the express command from the Lord brings unbearable consequences. The only way to handle a burden is to take it to the Lord and leave it there.

Eli was a priest of the Lord and he had two sons; Hophni and Phinehas who became vile because they were not trained in the ways of God. While the priest was busy serving the Lord, and ministering to the people his children were left to themselves. He failed in his responsibility to train them up in the ways of the Lord. Although he was faithful keeping the vineyards of others, he failed to keep his own vineyard - Songs of Solomon 1:6.
