If you are feeling …
If you are feeling hopeless, where did you place your hope?
“Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in You.” (Psalm 42:11, Psalm 33:22)
If you are feeling soul thirsty and hungry, where are you going to find your soul nourishment?
“Jesus declared, ‘I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty. If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him. (John 6:35, 7:37-38).
If you are feeling empty, where are you looking to be filled?
“For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled” (Colossians 2:9-10 Matthew 5:6).
If you are feeling unloved, remember who loves you forever.
“Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed, says the LORD, who has compassion on you. I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness The eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and onlySon, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (Isaiah 54:10, Jeremiah 31:3, Psalm 33:18, Psalm 33:5, John 3:16).
In Christ you are never without hope, soul nourished, always filled, and forever loved!
