Jesus knows what you need...put your hope in Him!

Jesus, He knows what you need, can give you what you don't have and get you were you need to be. He carried the burdens of your life to the cross and wiped out the power of each one of them (Jn 16:33). Jesus' loved ones watched His persecution leading up to His death on the cross; their hope collapsed as they watched Him take His last breath. They forgot the promise He made that He would have to go, but would send the Advocate (Jn 16:7). They thought it was over-the plan didn't go as they expected; they reverted to human wisdom and forget the power of God (1Cor 2:5). Relying on what they could see...not Who they professed to believe. They let human reasoning rob them of God's promises. Have you allowed reasoning to steal God's promises based on what you can see? You've been praying and seeking God-not much has changed; you're growing weary. If you're honest-you're scared...what if you're wrong, what if you missed God, maybe you misunderstood? So you begin to let go of what you believed and prayed so diligently for-your hope fades and despair slaps you in the face mocking your faith. Listen closely, God can't lie-He keeps His promises. Run to Him-let the love of Jesus refresh you...hope in Him, not on what you can see. What you see changes constantly, Jesus never does-He will supply you with His hope every day...but you must take it. Jesus, He knows what you need, can give you what you don't have and get you where you need to be! Will you let Him???
