How To Get Our Hopes Up!
"The hope of the righteous will be gladness,
but the expectation of the wicked will perish."
Proverbs 10: 28
Charles Swindoll wrote, “When we are overworked
and
exhausted, hope gives us fresh energy. When
we are discouraged, hope lifts our spirits. When we
are tempted to quit, hope keeps us going…. When
we fear the worst, hope brings reminders that God
is still in control.”
Proverbs 10:28 says that hope brings gladness
into our minds and hearts. That’s true
when the
present circumstances are not what we’d wish.
Hope is a solid expectation of certain future
events, which include fulfillment of all God’s
promises for us in this life and in the one to
come.
We must hold to our biblical hope when everything
else feels hopeless. Hope becomes most precious
when personal resources have been
exhausted and
we realize that amid our problems God is present.
When you’re going through difficulties, be thankful
in the knowledge that you can put your trust in Him.
Look to Jesus, and get your hopes up!
"With God life is an
endless
hope. Without God life is a
hopeless end."
