Stirred By The Scriptures

“Remember your word to your servant, for you have given me hope. My comfort in suffering is this ; Your promise preserves my life.” Psalm 119:49,50

The hope of Christ in my life and the promises to which I anchor my soul are really just a few. First, God promises forgiveness of my sins through Christ. Second, Jesus promises to never leave me nor forsake me. The third one is a tough one - in this world I will have trouble (struggle). It is the last one however that cements my hope, because of Christ I have an eternity with God in heaven. Those are solid and they do preserve me in this uncertain world.
