“I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.”
I hope everything turns out ok. I hope you are feeling better. I hope, I hope I hope. How often do we say that word-hope-in a given day? What is hope, anyway? Webster defines it as: “to cherish a desire with anticipation: to want something to happen or be true; to desire with expectation of obtainment or fulfillment; to expect with confidence.”
In Psalm 130 we read that it is in God’s word that we should hope. Of all the people we come to know in our lifetime, there is only One who will never steer us in the wrong direction and that is the Lord. When our hope is in Him and Him alone, we can wait knowing that everything will work accordi.ng to God’s plan. Do bad things sometimes happen that we have no way of understanding? Yes, every single day. Is it easy to always patiently wait on the Lord? Not for me and probably not always for you either.
Today, let us each focus more on putting our hope in the Lord and waiting for His direction through the day.
