Call Me Hope
Lamentations 3:24
The
LORD is my portion, says my soul,
Therefore,
I have hope in Him. (NKJ)
The biggest influence in my life that caused me to lose heart and assume
a defeated position was the futility I felt in relying and hoping in this world
to satisfy my needs, for it is unstable, out of control, and in flux—here today
and gone tomorrow. When I finally
accepted that this short life had no lasting value, I decided to escape into
the darkness and hide in my depression and defeat. I now understand that the Lord God allows
many of us to reach that point of hopelessness in order to set the stage for
His redeeming Truth that is desperately needed in our world. And as I began to understand the absolutes
Truth about this life and its final outcome, it was obvious that my only hope
was trusting in the Way that God provided for us though His Word, and the death
and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Our infinite Savior is the only One who can
save us from the dark endings of this wayward world.
Traveling through this life-journey by trusting in the absolute
principles of our Lord God is the only Way to live in this short life. But there is one absolute principle that
stood out and gave me the most hope in my hopelessness, and it was knowing that
nothing would ever separate me from God’s love.
Once you know and believe in God’s unchanging Truth, my friends, your
life-journey on this earth will no longer be lived in vain. Instead, you will
enjoy a God-driven, purpose-filled life with glorious meaning and eternal
value. The living God is your best and
only Hope, because He has prepared an awesome eternal life-journey for all
those who call Him Hope.
A Whisper of Hope
Put your Hope in Me…For when you do I will reside in the depths of
your heart. It is then that My Hope will
begin to reign in you. You will not find
an ounce of lasting hope or peace in the world around you, in the circumstances
you create, or in any human relationships you may acquire. I Am your Hope.
1 Peter 1:21
Through Christ you have
come to trust in
God. And you have placed your faith and
hope in God, because He
raised Christ from
the dead and give Him great
glory. (NLT)
I Am the LORD and I do not
change!
(Malachi 3:6)
