Romans 8:24-25
24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
When you were a. kid did you ever get up all excited on Christmas morning to open presents and then your mom handed you the squishy one? You know the one I am talking about. You knew it did not come from Santa even if she put his name on it. Santa does not send socks and underwear!
We don’t wait in anticipation and determination for things we already have. Why would we? Not that we don’t like what we have or appreciate it, we just have no need to hope for it. Hope is for those things we cannot see or touch, at least not right now.
Our hope in God is EVERYTING! It is that thing that feeling that keeps you moving and going. It makes you put in that little extra more. It tells you when you have given your all that there is still a little more to reach for and you do. Life would be nothing without our Hope in God. So, don’t let go of your hope. It is the gas that fuels everything in your life even if you are hoping for those new socks and underwear. Hmmm…I think I need to go shopping🤔
Lord my Hope is in You and it will never let me down and will always keep me going. ~amen
