| | There wasn't much of a sermon this weekend at church as it was baptism and communion weekend. But God kind of spoke to me about hope, and He used the hymn "In Christ Alone", particularly the verses I have below...
In Christ alone my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This Cornerstone, this solid ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace When fears are stilled, when strivings cease My Comforter, my All in All Here in the love of Christ I stand
No guilt in life, no fear in death This is the power of Christ in me From life’s first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man Can ever pluck me from His hand ‘Til He returns or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
I was reminded that He alone is my source of hope; not my beloved, not TVC, not DFW, not family, not friends. None of these things are worth holding onto so tightly. Only Christ alone can satisfy, can comfort, can save me from myself. God is not limited to my immediate circumstances or surrounding. He was, He is, He will be. He has complete control over the entire universe. This includes my own uncertain future. He will not abandon me. He will be with me, and it will be for His glory, and for my good. Nothing I can do will change His love for me, or His plan for my life.
