Where Our Hope Is

Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." Lamentations 3:21-24

Our hope is in the Lord. Any hope outside of God is a false hope. God is faithful to us even when we are not faithful to Him.

Stability

LORD, who may dwell in your sanctuary? Who may live on your holy hill? He whose walk is blameless and who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from his heart and has no slander on his tongue, who does his neighbor no wrong and casts no slur on his fellowman, who despises a vile man but honors those who fear the LORD, who keeps his oath even when it hurts, who lends his money without usury and does not accept a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken. Psalms 15:1-5

Those that choose to be obedient to the Lord will be protected by Him. He will guard them and keep watch over them. He will give them the strength to make it through difficult circumstances and He will renew their strength. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
