The Wobbly Reed

There's a hard fact and no-exception rule of spirituality that our prophets and wise men have taught us throughout history: As soon as a Jew trusts in anyone or anything other than Hashem, the object of his trust will not only disappoint him, but turn on him as well. In other words, they thought that they were leaning on the Rock of Gibraltar, but it turned out to be a wobbly reed. This has happened over and over in history, for it's a rule that's ingrained into Creation. Be honest with yourself and contemplate it. It will help you decide what you must do in the nearest future.
