"they wither more quickly than grass. Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so perishes the hope of the godless. What he trusts in is fragile; what he relies on is a spider's web. He leans on his web but it gives way; he clings to it, but it does not hold." ~Job 8
What do I rely on? My intelligence, looks, finances, athletic prowess, charisma, bribery, manipulation? It's pretty easy to weave a web of things such as these to rely on; but, despite what seemingly every human thinks, they are so fragile. We cling to this web of things that we think will support us but instead we are caught up. Caught up in the tangled web we weave when we decide to deceive ourselves into thinking that anything and anyone besides God can be relied on.
