My Portion - Playlist

“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.” Lamentations 3:24 

I made this playlist after reading Lamentations chapter 3. It was one of the scriptures in a devotional I was going through and I was taken aback by how the writer of the chapter experienced so much struggle but still hoped in God. How even in the midst of not having anything at all he was still able to say the Lord was his portion; that the Lord was even attainable to him amidst deep grief and anguish. The chapter made me look at my own life too. Regardless of how hard things get for me or how awful I think things are, the Lord will forever be my portion. With this in mind, how does it change the way we live and interact with our struggles knowing that the Lord is ours forever? The gospel doesn’t just save us, it keeps us! Jesus’ work didn’t stop when he died on the cross, He rose and is now seated at the right hand of the Father, still interceding on our behalf, hearing our cries, and walking us through tough battles. I want to start truly trusting and putting my full hope in him in all circumstances. I’m still trying to figure this out but for now, a playlist to remind you and me that even when it seems like we have nothing at all, we have the Lord. What a great inheritance!
