Where is your God? (Psalm 42)

 Contrary to what many think, the bible has much to say about hope, it relates to those who are God's children,it does not only deal with the here and now,but also for the afterlife. In Psalm 42 v 11 and 43 v5, we have these words. 

                                                  'Why,my soul, are you downcast?

                                                  Why so disturbed within me?

                                                   Put your hope in God,

                                                  for I will yet praise Him,

                                                  my Saviour and my God'

Here is a man of God downcast,and yet a man who was searching for  God (Ps 42v 2) people are asking him,' Where is your God?' (v3). A teacher of atheistic outlook wrote on the blackboard- 'God is  nowhere,' at that moment the class finished, for lunch,the words remained on the blackboard. When they came back from lunch, someone had altered the words on the blackboard,it read,' God is now here'. Frederick W, Faber  wrote,

                                                  'Thrice blest is he to whom is given

                                                  The instinct that can tell

                                                  That  God is on the field,

                                                  when He is most invisible'

                                             'Jesus said,'' I am with you always''

                                                      'Matthew 28 v 20'
