For our heart is glad in Him, because we trust in His holy name. Let Your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you. - Psalm 33:21–22
Your grip on hope is slipping. The diagnosis is crushing. The addiction is suffocating. The worry and anxiety are draining you to nearly nothing. You feel like the rope you've been hanging on to is slowly sliding through your fingers. Your hands are burning, cramping. You're down to the final few loose threads. You're squeezing the life out of that fraying, lifeless rope.
Let go.
Did you hear that?
LET GO!!!
You won't fall into oblivion or hellish chaos.
You'll fall where you've actually been all along, even while tenaciously clutching your rope.
You'll fall into Jesus' arms. Into His love and protection. Into His care for you and your future.
You do have a future, you know. It may not look exactly like the future you were envisioning. It may include hurt that you weren't planning for. It may include more years…or fewer. It CAN include more joy and peace, and less worry.
But it's exactly the future God planned for you from the beginning. He knows you better than you, better than any of your doctors, your specialists, your friends, your family...
You may be mystified by what's happening in your life, bewildered by the decisions that need to be made, uncertain of what tomorrow will bring.
But never forget: You have hope.
Instead of a weak and raveling rope, hang on to your Creator, the source of your hope.
He's got you and your future in his very skilled hands.
Let go.
