Trust God, Hope, and Have Faith

I lift up my eyes to the hills-where does my help come from? My help comes from
the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2 NIV


Can you visualize yourself and God together? Walking together, working together,
tackling every challenge together and rejoicing together…forever? Can you visualize
yourself with the kind of hope and belief that the above scripture promises us?

Hope is not simply wishful thinking. It is a confident expectation rooted in God’s
character. Time and time again we read in the Bible that He provides, protects and
sustains His people. Remember how he cared for Elijah in the wilderness, guided
Moses through impossible circumstances and carried Noah through the flood? He
continues to care for us today in the same way.

Living with hope changes how we face challenges. Instead of being overwhelmed, we
can move forward with peace that God is in control. When we trust Him, we are freed
from constant worry and reminded that our lives are held in His hands.
Trust God’s word and His power more than you trust your own feelings and
experience.

Remember, God loves you unconditionally.

He is the Rock in Christ,
and it is the sea that ebbs and flows, not Him. Lettie Cowman


Remember this formula: God’s strength + your trust = victory. Thanks be to God!
