A Hope That Carries to the End

Speaker: Mickey Lohr

Bible Passage: 1 Thessalonians 4:9-18

CONSIDER THIS

Hope means hoping when things are hopeless…or it is no virtue at all. — GK Chesterton

Jesus encouraged His followers to “always pray and never lose hope.” Imagine that. Never losing hope. Never giving up. Never letting go of the hope He provides. This is God’s will for you and me. He wants us to abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

It is His Word that gives us patience and encouragement so that we can have hope. It is His hope that carries and sustains us, bringing us comfort and help in the time of need.

The God who spoke hope in the Scriptures still speaks hope into our lives. He comes into our world to do what we can’t. And He is coming again. Our hope resides in Him. This sustaining hope carries us faithfully to the end…no matter what we face.
