Eternal Hope

Human beings, even Christians, struggle with expectations, hope, and contentment. Saying “I expected more,” “Wish I had a bigger house,” or “I’m useless,” shows how the devil constantly drags us into a life of despair rather than life

in God’s love, grace, and mercy. Yet, hope springs eternal! “According to [God’s] great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ ...” (1 Peter 1:3), continuing “to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you.” For YOU. Though we struggle now, our heavenly hope is God’s blessing to us. When your spirit is less than joyful, remember David’s words in Psalm 42:11 “Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God.”
