We look at all the troubling things going on in the world around us and we wonder if there is any hope. Sometimes it is hard to see hope amid the daily struggles that we face. We all face struggles of various sizes. We look at the balance in our checking accounts and we wonder if we will have enough money to pay our bills. We worry about our loved ones health and their well being.
We are living in very troubling times. Sometimes it is easy to feel hopeless and all alone when the world seems to be spinning out of control. World leaders argue back and forth. Our Government leaders can't seem to agree on anything. It could be very easy to collapse into despair and panic, but we need to remember that their is still hope for all of us.
We are not alone in this world. We don't have to go it alone. There is a God who loves us with a deep and unconditional love. He didn't create the world and leave us to fend for ourselves. He is still active in this world today. God demonstrated His love for each of us by sending His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, who died on the Cross to pay for our sins. Jesus rose from the dead on the third day and One Day He will return to this earth to rule as the King of kings and Lord of lords.
We have a wonderful hope in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is through Jesus Christ that we can have forgiveness of our sins and an eternal home in Heaven where we will dwell with the Lord forever. This hope is available for everyone that has placed their faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation. We must humble ourselves, repent of our sins, and receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. We are saved by the grace of Jesus Christ through placing our faith in His finished work on the Cross.
We will all face daily struggles and there will be hard hills that we must climb, but we can rest assured that the Lord will be with us each step of the way when we are trusting in Him. The Lord loves us and He will never leave us nor will He ever forsake us. There will be times when we will feel like giving up and we may even wonder if things will ever get better. When we are trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ we can be sure that things will eventually get better one day. It may not happen until we enter into Heaven and see the Lord Jesus with our very own eyes, but that day will come for the believer in Christ.
Let's not give up in doing good. Let's keep our eyes upon the Lord and remember our hope is not in the world and the things of this world, but our hope rests securely in the Lord Jesus Christ. May we draw nearer to the Lord and may we rest in the great promises of the Lord.
Lord,
We praise Your Name.
Help us to keep our focus on You.
Thank You Lord for leading our steps.
Come Soon Lord Jesus.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
