The Fragility of Trust

It is better to take refuge in God than to take refuge in your neighbor. It is better to take refuge in God than to trust princes. –Psalm 118:8

The absence or presence of trust can either create or destroy relationships. Covenants are either strengthened or weakened by every word and every act. To be blunt: We either re-covenant or we betray. Every relationship is more fragile than we think it is because the possibilities of betrayal are always lurking. First, there are betrayals of language. Every time we are insincere, we betray the trust others have in the meaning of words. Second, there are betrayals of responsibility that occur whenever we fail to do what another person needs us to do. Whether failing to be a full partner in a marriage to failing to observe basic rules of safety, we can betray the trust that others put in us. Just to drive is to trust the other drivers; to fly means to trust the pilots and air traffic controllers; to have friends, to build families, to have a community are all leaps of faith and exercises in trust. Our entire understanding of ourselves as a people depends on strengthening covenants. The establishment of the Hebrew people was based on one unique trust, a covenant between God and Israel: On knowing that God will be our God and that we will be God’s people. Because of that covenant, we have committed ourselves to living in a sacred relationship and in a sacred bond of trust. Today how can we strengthen the bonds which underlay the covenant we cherish?
