06/27/10 – Our God of Hope

When you listen to the current news on any given day, you can’t help but wonder and ask yourself the question, in your physical mind and thinking, “Is there any hope for the future?” We see and face many challenges as a nation, as a world, and as individuals. Many are struggling with a host of issues: financial problems, health issues, marriages, children, jobs – the list is endless. Many people in our world are feeling hopeless and lost in a crazy cycle of life.

The fact is this, we need hope in our lives. When enduring life’s most difficult times, we need to believe that a positive outcome is possible. Hope is what points to the light at the end of the tunnel. Hope gives us fresh energy when we feel like quitting. When life brings confusion and blurs our vision, hope clears the way. When we fear the worst, hope reminds us that God is still in control. Jesus is our hope for today and tomorrow. Because of Him and what He did for mankind, we need not live in despair. He knows every trial and struggle we will ever face. He knows what measure of His grace and mercy we will need. He promises to go with us and help us in all things. Because of His resurrection power, we can have hope for today and all eternity.
