It’s the Saturday before Easter. Saturday. The waiting. The joy is in the anticipation and the HOPE.
Hope in someone to play with me.
Hope that my timeout will end soon.
Hope that I can have a few quiet moments.
Hope that you’ll drop some food?
Hope that you will read to me.
Or you’ll take me outside?
We should never give up HOPE.
But, let’s never forget this:
Hope in HIM.
He which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus . . .
—2 Corinthians 4:14
The resurrection of Christ brings hope.
I heard this quote once: “What oxygen is for the lungs, such is hope for the meaning of human life.” (Emil Brunner).
All is forgiven the day Christ gave His life. We can have joy, peace, and security! There is hope for a new heaven and a new earth, and that the Kingdom of God will reign forever and every. AMEN.
Let’s never stop having hope!
