HOPE - Because Jesus Is King

We say it all the time. “I hope so” or “I hope things work out.” We hope the problem goes away. We hope tomorrow is a better day. But that’s just wishful thinking. Hope is more than that. Hope is more than optimism, fate, or good luck. True hope, biblical hope, is based on the promises of God. If God promised, it’s guaranteed. A hymn by the Getty songwriting team which asks the question, “What is our hope in life and death?” The resounding answer is “Christ alone!” Our hope in life and death is Christ alone! Hope is trusting that He will help us in this life and trusting that He will get us to the next life. That’s why, as the Bible says, we “rejoice in hope!” (Romans 12:12).
