Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.
Hebrews 10:23 (NLT)
Hope for a believer is everything.
But the one thing that hope is not is simply something wished for: an outcome desired but not a certainty.
To a believer, hope is a promise that has already been kept. Certainty. It cannot be snatched away at the last moment.
“…my Hope is in Jesus…”
Our hope doesn’t rely on our feelings or performance.
God walks with us through sorrow, fear, monotonous days, and amazing days. In each experience, He is guiding us toward Him.
We often recognize His hand when we talk to Him, read His Word, and see the lives of other believers and so much more.
These each reveal His presence in our soul and reveals our hope.
Tomorrow’s Seed Basket shares the story of a believer who, after a devastating event, trusts God and has hope.
Another man, a non-believer, is also in his own despair. When they meet, one discovers what true Hope is. I hope you will come back tomorrow.
All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ… by his great mercy we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead.
Now we have great hope!
1 Peter 1:3 (NLT)
