Psalms 39:7 NLT And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you.


We can tell where people put their hope by their response to certain things. A person who puts their hope in the government becomes upset when their political representative faces resistance or doesn’t do what they said they would do. A person who puts their hope in the stock market could become depressed if their stocks plummet. A person who puts their hope in doctors and medicine becomes fearful when they get a negative doctor’s report.

However, for those who put their hope in the Lord, they shall be like a tree planted by the river. Their leaves will not wither (Ps. 1:3). They shall be like a house built upon a rock. When the rains and winds come, they will not fall (Matt. 7:24-27).

If we can push all these systems and man-made constructs to the side and only trust God, we shall not be moved. We won’t be worried about the economics, the test results, or what the government does or doesn’t do.

We can take every issue to God because our hope is in Him.
