God, our only hope

Posted by Scott Schampers on February 11, 2012

Isaiah 43:11, “I, I am the Lord, and besides me there is no savior”

Is your heart weighed down?

There is nothing that you can turn to in this world that can truly lift a heavy heart.  Sure, you might find temporary reprieve from your heaviness of heart.  No amount of money, relationships, or power can take a heart and make it truly light because nothing earthly can lift a heart higher than the earth.  In this universe, the greater the mass, the greater the gravity.   In the same way the more we put our hope in earthly things the heavier our hearts become.

What have you been putting your hope in lately to relieve your heavy heart?  The Lord and the Lord alone is the savior.  He can lift your heart above the earth because he holds the earth.

Look to him, turn to him, call upon him, and come to him.  Jesus said,

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”  Matt 11:28-30
