Words Of Faith About Christ’s Call To Live In Hope… Christ
did not bring you into the world so you would always look down in hopelessness
and dejection. Christ
brought you into the world to live in His power of hope and promise for
eternity. There
may be no time in your life that seems to look the darkest than the time just
before your death. However,
you are often deceived by appearances because the time just before your death is
a time full of eternal hope and eternal promise. In
the times of your life when it seems there is no hope for anything good to
happen to you or for you, total goodness and joy await you as if tine did not
exist. In
Christ and because of Christ, the times when you have no hope are really times
when there is for you hope eternal. In
the times when you have no joy, there is already joy waiting to be poured out
upon your heart for all eternity. Christ
came to give you hope for every second you are alive. Christ
walked away from death in the grave to give you hope. Christ
is alive today and calls you to live in hope. Christ
walks and talks with you every second you are alive to get you to look beyond
the way things are…to a time when all things will be made new. Christ
calls you to look forward to a time when every hope will be realized in His
eternal stream of love and grace. For
all of this, give Christ praise, honor, and glory. Praise
His Name. Amen. |
