It is always better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in human beings. Human beings may not be uncaring but weak, hence can make mistakes and may not always be there for you. We live in a real world with its blessings and challenges. We have to face our own life challenges such as sicknesses, death, disappointment, betrayal of trust, etc. In spite of our desire to do good, we are often found wanting and insufficient. On the contrary, our Lord is ever immortal and an "ever - present help in affliction."  (Psalm 46:2)  In Psalm 91 the Lord says, "call on me when you are in trouble and I will answer."  The one who takes refuge in the Lord writes Jeremiah 17:18 "will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit." "He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers." (Psalm 1:3) Thus you shall you become the best of who you are called to become should you put your trust in Lord. This is not a promise of earthly glory but an assurance of a tranquility of mind that transcends human imagination in this life and in the life to come.
