- Nothing in our world is perfect.
- Nothing in our world can satisfy us.
- Some of the people we love will cause us pain.
- Some of the dreams we have will end in disappointment.
- There will be times when we feel alone.
- There will be times when we want to give up.
Not very hopeful sounding, huh?
Wait, there is more...
I also know these things to be true:
- We were not meant for this world.
- We can be completely satisfied.
- There is someone who will never harm us.
- There is someone who has better plans for us than the ones we have for ourselves.
- This person is Jesus and He will never leave us or forsake us.
- This person called Jesus, didn't give up on us but instead He bore all of our sins willingly, and defeated death.
I know this to be true... Things in life can try to trip us up, but we can remain standing because we have a firm foundation in Christ.
Psalm 40:2- "He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; He set me feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand."
Whether this post is coherent or not, I don't know! I'm so in awe of God's faithfulness through everything and find it so helpful to dwell on the truth of the Gospel during times of confusion. I'm so thankful for my Saviour!
Living for more,
Abby
