Source of all Strength

1 I pray to you, O Lord, my rock.
Do not turn a deaf ear to me.
For if you are silent, I might as well give up and die.
2 Listen to my prayer for mercy as I cry out to you for help,
as I lift my hands toward your holy sanctuary.8 The Lord gives his people strength.
He is a safe fortress for his anointed king.
9 Save your people! Bless Israel, your special possession.
Lead them like a shepherd, and carry them in your arms forever.

- Psalm 28

Have you ever felt like there's no other hope in this world but only in one person? Nothing seems to be going your way unless GOD changes things. Well this is how David the powerful and great King felt. How can such a man of high position feel insecure and fear that GOD will not listen to HIM? This is exactly the kind of man that GOD looks with mercy to, a humble man. A man that depends on GOD and solely relies upon HIS power and Sovereignty to change things in David's favor. David wasn't proud enough to think he had it all because he understands that he is just a mere human being chosen by GOD to be leader of the great Israel.

If you are a man or woman like David, that trust in GOD completely, then you will never regret anything in life for in the end, those that depend on GOD like David, can conclude that GOD gives strength to His people, to His children. It is easy to see that it is GOD that can change the way we feel from a low to a high of hope. All we have to do is to depend on GOD, to read His word daily and receive hope through His word, through remembering who He is, HE is our salvation, He is the source of all power and strength in all the world. 

Hope in Knowing GOD

28 Have you never heard? Have you never understood?
The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth.
He never grows weak or weary.
No one can measure the depths of his understanding.
29 He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.
30 Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion.
31 But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.

- Isaiah 40:28-31

Have you never heard from who or where? Have you never understood about what??? About who GOD is! HE is the only hope anyone could ever have in this world. If you are hopeless and anxious with troubles, there's only ONE to run to and seek refuge in. It is the LORD who is GOD, the Bible is a book written by GOD by people whom HE chose to write the books about HIM. If you have never heard or understood, you have to read HIS word and read it again and again until you understand just how much we need GOD in our lives. We take our focus on our troubles when we set our eyes on GOD.

There is so much hope when you read HIS word. You will begin to understand that not everything is dependent on you and that you don't need to be in control of everything in life because we cannot control everything. There is so much peace to know that there is someone greater than humanity that controls the entire universe. There is so much comfort that this someone is a Loving Being that is all powerful and never weak. That this Loving Being loves us and that we can call HIM our Father. It is so wonderful to know that our Father wants us to trust HIM and when we do, we will not lose strength but will soar with HIM even when it seems the world is crumbling. It is amazing to know that GOD is our Father and we don't have to be hopeless because HOPE is found in HIM.
