#soap # 2 Kings 12 ## Title: Be Trustworthy ## Scripture: (2 Kings 12:15) “They did not audit the treasurers who disbursed the funds to the foremen, for they were honest.” (NET) ## Observation: Someone once said, “Trust is given. Mistrust is earned.” This was a shocking statement because I have always heard this phrase in reverse. To me, mistrust is preprogrammed. We could dive deeper into why this is for so many of us, but the point remains the same. So many do not trust others. Therefore, being someone who is trustworthy becomes a breath of fresh air. This is the type of person who will more easily find friends, find opportunities, and find joy. ## Application: Do the right thing when no one is looking to prove you are trustworthy. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always being worthy of our trust and hope.
