““The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.”” Lamentations 3:24 (ESV)
Need a bit of hope in the circumstances of life the days? Have the “things of earth” pressed in on your heart and soul and are they deflecting your spirit from the Lord God and His promises? There is a source where hope can be found. Hope comes from knowing and trusting in what is true. When we consider the mercies, compassions, and faithfulness of God we find our portion of our inheritance is Almighty God. He is our LORD and He is who we have received as our portion. (Numbers 8:20; Psalm 16:5). Can we envision anything that is more blessed than receiving a portion of God, or God as our spiritual inheritance? It is the Lord that we have in life and in death. He is our portion in time and to eternity. All He is, and all He has, is ours in Christ. Considering that we are heirs of Him, shall enjoy Him forever, and we shall never be used up, we affirm that God is a large and full portion that is indescribably rich and great, satisfies our soul, and will last forever. Therefore, we have hope that will never disappoint us.
