I don't understand this fallen world we live in. It truly is a broken place. It seems so often that things are hopeless. However I have to remember we have hope. I asked God the question where is the hope in this world? Where is the hope in this life? Where is the hope in this situation? My prayer was, "please Father, help me I feel so hopeless." The situation felt like I was supposed to be holding a fistful of water and it was all leaking out the sides of my hand. My human strength, mind, and emotions said I could no longer do it. But God said, "wait, don't give up, there is hope."

Hope, I asked God where it was and He began to lead me through the Psalms. Psalms 23, He is with me in the valley. Psalms 91, He is my protector, shield, and defender. Psalms 42, I put my hope in God my Savior and my God. Psalms 43, I will praise my God my hope. Psalms 19, God is my rock and my redeemer. The thought then occurred to me that even though my heart is heavy today God should still be my hope. He will redeem this situation for His glory. Thank you God!
