David + Psalms.
Hope in a hopeless world
Psalm 33:22
“May your unfailing love rest upon us Lord…..”
How can we maintain hope?
Hope- Person or Thing you lean on
Hopelessness- Person or thing you lean on comes crashing down.
Romans 8:20
What are you leaning your “ladder of hope” on?
“Against it’s will, all creation was subjected to God’s curse. But with eager hope, the creation looks forward to the day when it will join God’s children in glorious freedom from death and decay.”
Everything is running down. God has allowed sin to run rampant?
There is only 1 place that we can put our hope in. All things will crumble besides God.
HOW DO WE PUT OUR HOPE IN GOD?
Lean your ladder on God.
-Lean on God, Don’t lean on people
-Exercise more, it will lift your spirits
-Sleep well, chemical balance will follow
-Take care of yourself, one who is positive loves them self more
-Help others, take the glory off of you and place it on God
-Eat Well, chemical balance will follow
-Get off meds that do nothing but imbalance you.
Whether life is good or bad, place hope in God.
Today was a great service, loved it!
and I guess i’m gonna try to take as many advantages to say that today. Because nothing special will happen, it’s just annother day.
I need to start blogging again.
I wentyo SUNY Delhi last night into today, it’s in upperstate NY (about 4 hours from here) and I can truly say I am excited for college. From the energy on campus to the student life, it’s such a crazy experience I can’t wait to get ahold of. Now, the sad part. I really know I’m going to ball like a baby when the day comes for me to leave. Being away in Florida for a week really showed me how much I care for you all (everyone at cinema church) I don’t know how I’m going to be away for months at a time alone. Wow, if only God were to take me on another course with cinema church…
Back to the point for this whole post really. I’ve been slacking on blogging about what I’m reading and my school work is starting to drop bc I’m getting senioritis. I’m going to have to kick it back into gear, I feel I’m losing my close relationship with God… Not good
