To trust in a higher authority comes from realizing God knows all our days, He knows what we need to know and do not need to know. God is someone to trust because He is faithful in fulfilling His promises.
“He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.” (Acts 1:7 NIV)
“9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
(2 Peter 3:9 NIV)
“10 Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you.”(Isaiah 54:10 NIV)
19 God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?
(Numbers 23:19 NIV)
