"Cease ye from man." Isaiah 2:22

NEVER trust him, for his heart is deceitful; never expect from him, for he is an empty cistern; never follow him, for he is a false guide. Cursed be the man who trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. Trust ye not in a friend. One object of trust is enough: He has all you want, and has offered to give whenever you ask. He never did deceive, He never can. It is impossible for God to be. Looking to man, dishonours His fulness; trusting in man, is pouring contempt on His word; expecting from man, is overlooking His agency. If you neglect this loving direction, expect to suffer; if you walk by it, your peace will be a river, and your soul like a well-watered garden. He knows what is in man, you do not. He cautions you, because He loves you. He would save you from disappointment, sorrow, and woe. Come then to the conclusion of the prophet, "Therefore will I look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me." Never expect from man, but always from God.

Happy they who trust in Jesus!

Sweet their portion is, and sure:

When destruction others seizes,

God will keep His own secure:

Happy people!

Happy, though despised and poor.
