Blessed man

Jeremiah 17:5-8
Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the Lord. For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when good comes, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited. Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes; but tis leaf will be green, and will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor cease from yielding fruit.

Jesus came to give us life and life more abundantly.... however this life flows when we put our trust in His Word and promises..... when we turn our eyes from man toward God... we enter the rest of God... we come into faith... and as we put our trust in Him the flow of God or the peace of God begins to flow thru us and work in us.... in the year of drought and difficulty.. .God doesnt want us to look to men or to arm of flesh.. but to look to Him for counsel and hope... He doesnt disappoint us... today... make a decision to keep believing in His promises and remember that Hope does not disappoint becos the love of God has been poured out to us thru the Holy Spirit...
