The Lord Carries, The Lord Sustains

Are we trusting in things we must carry, or resting in the God who promises to carry us?

In Isaiah 46, God reveals the difference between the false gods of this world and the one true God: idols must be carried and maintained by those who worship them, but the Lord carries and sustains his people. In the person and sacrificial work of Jesus, the Lord brings his salvation and righteousness near to us, and it is not our own righteousness, but his.
