Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. Psalm 62:5
There are times that God is the only One who can help us. The empty places within us cannot be filled by any man. Nothing we hold can ever fill the void. God alone is our hope - our resting place - our refuge.
There is comfort in the words of the song, "Jesus is the answer for the world today..." But if I am honest, there are times this truth is very frustrating. Just once I wish my attempts to find true fulfillment outside of Him would work, but I know better. Nothing from this world can satisfy our real need. He is sometimes all we have left. All our human attempts will continue to fail.
Lord, there are so many things to which I have turned, but in You alone will I find rest. My hope comes from You. Show Yourself today. I long to stand before kings to worship You.
