This is our Hope

Sometimes its so hard to understand. To comprehend God and all of His goodness. His faithfulness. His vastness. His silence.

So difficult to know that He is always there. Will never forsake us...even in the darkest night. So hard to believe His promises. That  He is for us. That He is holding us in the palm of His hand. That He has our days numbered. That our name is graven on His hands.

   

We will never understand the love that emanates from His being and fulfills our emptiness. We only know that we have to believe it. We must. For these are the very truths we as Christians base our lives. The things that uphold us in the raging storms. In the times we can't hold on much longer. We hang on the to depth of our God to cover all of our insufficiency and emptiness. These very things we cannot fully grasp, but only catch a glimpse of are the things we obtain HOPE from. We are in such a desperate state that we must trust what God has declared... if we don't where else can we turn? Though we do not fully understand...

faith is a must.
