What are you hoping
for? Is it a
house? A great job? Healing?
Hope is the thing that gets you
through tough times. It's like shifting your car into a higher gear when you're
going up a mountain. But maybe you have put your hope in something and had it
dashed to pieces, leaving you hopeless. The temptation is to give up on your
dreams altogether. What do you do when you've lost hope?
"When the world
says, 'Give up,' Hope whispers, 'Try it one more time'" (Author
Unknown).
If you sat
in a broken chair and fell through, would you never sit in a chair again?
No, but you would choose a sturdier
chair next time.
The Bible tells us what matters is where you
put your hope.
"How blessed is he whose help is the God
of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God" (Psalm 146:5).
When you put your hope in Jesus, you
are putting your hope in the fact that not only will He never abandon you,
He will bring you into heaven. The hope in His
Son Jesus tells you, When you
go through hard times, I will be there for you. Even when you die, I will carry
you to eternal life.
Get fresh hope today
by putting your faith in Jesus Christ.
