“Remember your promise to me; it is my only hope.” ~ Psalms 119:49 NLT
In a time of chaos, panic, fear, and distress hope seems to have fled from us all. The news seems hopeless. The amount of people losing their jobs seems hopeless. But there is still hope in this current darkness. God’s promises are our hope. Our only hope.
He promised that if we humble ourselves, pray, seek His face, and turn from our wicked ways, He will forgive us and heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:14), so no virus can destroy our nation. He promised that by His stripes we ARE healed (1 Peter 2:24), so no virus has any power over us. He promised that He has plans to help us, make us prosperous, and not to harm us (Jeremiah 29:11), so no virus or chaos can displace us from His plan.
God promised us many things. Resurrection. Eternal Life. Peace. Love. Forgiveness. Hope in these things. Focus on these things. When the world tries to distract you with how scary times are right now, remember the promises of God and hold to them. Never lose hope. With hope anything is possible.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Hope In His Promises.
