JULY 24 – HOPE

July 24, 2020

07/24 Psalm 39:4-7

“ LORD, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered— how fleeting my life is. 5 You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.” Interlude 6 We are merely moving shadows, and all our busy rushing ends in nothing. We heap up wealth, not knowing who will spend it. 7 And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you.

HOPE

My hope is in Jesus. My time on Earth is brief even if I live out a long life and Jesus is the One who brings me into the Family of God. Nothing here on Earth is lasting but Jesus never fails.
