Who Are You Placing Your Hope In?
We have this hope
as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. Hebrews 6:19 NIV
I'm holding out a lot
of "hope" these days. The Bible tells us that hope is an anchor...it
settles us into the thing or the person we are hoping in. That is why it is so
important that we place our hope in something that works. Someone once gave me
an acronym for hope that said it was
Having Only
Positive Expectations
I like that! I want
to stay positive even when things are not going my way. Seems that I always
want them to happen on my terms or in my timetable. I've learned these days
that the Lord knows quite a bit more than I do. He knows the things I should do
and the people I should connect with. And He knows the best time for all of it
to happen!!
So who are you
placing your hope in today? People may let you down. Things may get in the way.
But when you trust in the Lord and hold out hope in Christ, you are setting
yourself up for something truly special. So take a deep breath and relax. Hope
in God. It's going to happen!
