I thought the Lord would surely return in 2017. I should’ve known better. Nobody knows when but the Father.
What will happen this New Year? Who will die? Will there be more fires and hurricanes, earthquakes and tornados? Will God continue to bless as before?
I don’t know a lot of things, but this I do know. My hope is in the Lord.
Romans 8:38-39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
If we are in Christ Jesus—He’s our Lord and Savior—we can face whatever 2018 hurls at us, for we are never alone.
We may or may not face cancer, lose loved ones suffer financially or have heartache, but if we do, that’s when Jesus is the closest, carrying us along.
Psalm 31:24 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord .
