All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others
HOPE IN THE LORD ~ JUBAL
In a world that can wear us down mentally, physically, and spiritually, how do we renew our strength? What do we do in the face of too many projects, too many temptations, too many conflicts, and too many other soul and energy-sapping dynamics at work in life?
The prophet Isaiah ministered to a nation on the verge of collapse. It wasn't just the acute threat from foreign powers - though that was an obvious stressor - but the once proud and righteous country was sinking in a mire created by its own cynicism and corruption. His antidote to spiritual fatigue was simple: Hope in the Lord.
Others might help you. Great. But don't put your hope in them. You might be able to muster some more determination to get the job done. Wonderful. But don't even place your hope in yourself. The only place to turn for a renewed spirit is the One who has given you every good and perfect gift, including any strength or talent you were born with. What a wonderful promise that we can run without growing weary!
So how is your day? How has your week been going? How does this month look to be shaping up for you? Are you hopeful and inspired? Or are you discouraged? Either way, place your hope in the Lord and let Him give you a supernatural strength. ~ Jubal
