Hope At The End Of The Line
Psalm 119:81 (NIV) "My soul faints with longing for your
salvation, but I have put my hope in your word."
"Let me tell you. Things have gotten so bad for me I have
thought of ending it all. Sometimes I just cannot go on. The burdens are
too big and there is no hope for me."
All of us have times in our life when we hit the wall and cannot see
our way out. However, the hope we have as Christians and believers in an
unfailing God are the words He has given us in the Bible.
"You are not going to hit me with the Bible are you? I mean,
people have come up to me and rammed their Bible down my throat whether
I was interested or not. I really do not want to be hit over the head
with anything. Please spare me."
No, I am not going to hit you over the head with the Bible. Not every
verse in the Bible applies to every circumstance. What we all need to
try to do is listen with our heart to the words of the Bible rather than
listening with our ears. The words of Jesus show us how much God loves
us. The words of Jesus give us hope and Light. When Jesus said He would
never leave us or forsake us, He meant it. There need never be a time
when we are alone in adversity and without any hope. To have the hope of
Christ you have to trust, follow the rules, and believe. Believing is
the way we go from darkness and hopelessness to Light and hope.
Believing God is not with you is the darkest dark there is. Believing
God is with you is the way we have light in the darkness. Believing God
is with you is how you find hope at the end of the line.
