My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness, I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' name... On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand...
In this time of change I have to admit... I am hopeful.
Hope is in the air.
But as much as sometimes I feel like it would be easier (because I can see with my eyes :) to trust in a man- (President Obama- bless him)
I know that the only one I can really trust, and build my life on is Jesus.
I will continue to pray for our president to lead our country righteously-
But I know that the only one who will make a difference is Jesus.
I pray for President Obama to know him fully, everyday.
I pray for him to lead our country- with the help of the Father into righteousness, and peace.
But I know that a man can fail us.
So that is not where my hope rests.
Amen . . . I too am thankful that my faith rests with my God. I see the struggles and pain that seems to be surrounding everyone around us and don't understand how one could handle it without knowing that God is in control!
