Jesus Is Our Hope

The world around us seems to be falling apart in so very many ways.  We believers in Jesus Christ look on and often time we feel so helpless.  We want to do something, but we are not sure what to do.  We can always pray for our hurting world.  We can pray for those who don't know the Lord.  We can ask the Lord to give us the courage and wisdom to witness to an unbeliever.

There are so many people all around us that need hope.  Many people try to fill the void in their lives with the wrong things.  They end up reaching for drugs, alcohol, and other things.  Those things may seem fun and exciting at first, but before long they will be in bondage to them and many will become trapped in their sin. 

There is only One that can fill the void in people's hearts and that is the Lord Himself.  There is hope for the people in our world today and that hope is only found in Jesus Christ.  Jesus Christ is the true hope of this world. 

Sometimes we believers forget about the hope we have in Christ Jesus.  Through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ we obtain forgiveness of our sins and the promise of eternal life.  Jesus was sent on a rescue mission so save people from their sins.  We have all sinned and we can't save ourselves.  There is not a one of us that is good enough to enter Heaven based on our works. 

We are saved by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and we must come to Him by placing our faith in Him.  God is so very good and we can trust Him.

We must remember the great hope that we have in Jesus Christ and go out and tell people about the hope that we have inside our hearts.  There are people all around us that need Jesus.  If we don't tell them about the Lord, who will?

Lord,

Thank You that there is hope in You.

Help us to remember all that You have done for us.

Help us to tell others about the hope we have in You.

Lead us O Lord.

In Jesus name we pray,

Amen.
