Scripture
But now, O Lord, upon what am I relying? You are my only hope!
Psalms 39:7 NET
Observation
It is a great feeling when you get to the point in your life that you know you need God. I’m not just talking about a warm tingly feeling when you’re emotional, but a true realization that life is meaningless outside of God’s will.
But now!
Before it was all about you. Before it was about what you could get, do, accomplish… But now…
It’s all about God and what He wants, what He wants to achieve through you, how He wants to use you.
Are you there yet?
Application
This comes when you deny yourself and truly seek Him.
It’s hard in a world that constantly bombards you with what is right for you or what you want, need, deserve…
It is easy when you have tried all those things and still walk away unsatisfied with life.
God is your only hope. He is the meaning to your life that you are missing. He is the purpose you are looking for.
Give Him your all and see what happens!
Prayer
Lord, I’m yours! Everything is meaningless when compared to You. Help me to walk in Your ways and to be pleasing in Your sight.
Peace
