HOPELESSNESS WITHOUT CHRIST



There is so much pain throughout the world and hopelessness-without Christ.When I open up the Newspaper or go to the New's Site on the internet, all I see is hopelesness. Wars, Famine, Murder, Forest Fires, Floods, Earth Quakes etc.

There are so many folks wondering why is this happening? What am I going to do if it happens to me? Who is going to help me? Christ is the only answer, in HIm we will find comfort and safety, only in HIM will we not feel all alone, Only in HIM will we find Eternity.

There is so much happening all around us, so many folks suffering and are in need of Hope....only found in Christ.

Psalm 46:1, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."

When darkness veils His lovely face, I rest on His unchanging grace.
In every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil.
His oath, His covenant, and blood, support me in the whelming flood.
When every earthly prop gives way, He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; all other ground is sinking sand.

My heart broke watching this clip, there are so many hurting people...

This was a hard vidoe, Cristina. Our hope truly rest upon Christ. He is the only thing which will get us through.

Wow!! What a video clip!! Breaks my heart to see and hear of so much pain and heartache in the world. There is no other way to make it through but with Christ as our Rock and our Savior. He is truly my Strength and my Refuge. Thank you for this post.

Wonderful post!

It was very difficult to look at this video--the tears, the faces. But we have to look; we have to know what's going on in the world around us. I love this post, because you focus on Christ as the only answer. For the most part, the world doesn't want Him; in fact, the world is antagonistic towards the gospel. But you are doing right--we have to keep sounding it whenever and wherever we can. It's refreshing for me when I see someone using their blog to proclaim Christ, the hope of the world. I love the words from the hymn, also. Thanks, Christina.

Hi Sarah,
As I was watching this vidio I thought you know you hear so much hatred towards Muslims and they need Christ just as much as anyone else. We get angry at all the bombing at the hands of terrorists and they also need Christ-they are so deceived like the rest of the world.

Hi Julie,
Amen He is our Rock.

Hi Theresa,
thank you.

Hi Maxine,

your welcome, you also exalt our Lord on your blog and I thank you for that.
