Have you ever been let down by someone you really looked up to? I have.....we probably all have. When I was young, I listened to a Christian singer that I just adored. I suppose that I put her on a “perfect Christian pedestal.” Years later she ended up making some big, public mistakes that rocked my world. I realize that we all sin, but I struggled with this. Honestly this made me realize that our hope just can't be in man.
The concept of putting our hope in man has me contemplating the recent elections. Its just been one more stress on us Americans in an already stressful, pandemic ridden, riot filled country. Without getting political here on my blog, I realized that I've been putting my hope for a more peaceful environment on the election results. Have you too? I ran across the above verse in my Bible reading the other morning and it really encouraged my heart.
Our hope is in the Lord and our future is in his hands, not in man. Now that's a reason to rejoice and feel hopeful!
