Hope in the Lord

Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, on those who hope for His lovingkindness, to deliver their soul from death and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield. For our heart rejoices in Him, because we trust in His holy name. Let Your lovingkindness, O LORD, be upon us, according as we have hoped in You. Psalm 33:18-22   

God’s heart is touched by those who follow Him. There is hope for those who respect the Lord—and who wait on Him. He sees them—His eye is upon them. His vision is perfect. He doesn’t look back on the past and wonder “what if…” or “I should have…or I could have….” We need to trust that God has a plan for us, just as He said in Jeremiah. 'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.' Jeremiah 29:11. We can put our hope and trust in the Lord—He cares for us. Do you trust Him with your past, your future…with your life today? 

Prayer ~ Oh Lord, I put my trust in You for I know that You love me. I look forward to discovering Your plans for me…moment by moment. I give You my life, my all. I am Yours. Use me as You will.
