Every day seems different, and we have all had to make many changes to our normal lives. Some of us have felt hopeless during this pandemic. But, there is good news – hope is here! Jesus, the King of Kings, came down to Earth as a child to bring mankind a hope and a future.
Matthew 1:18-21 NLT
He identified himself with her condition. He bore her shame as his own. The neighbors would gossip. The stigma of fornication would fasten it stinging fangs in Mary’s heart. But it would strike him also...
- Hershel Hobbs
Hope is here even when plans change!
Changed Plans
• Financial surprise of a new tax
• Change in birthplace
• Comfort of home → a stable
• Close family visitors → shepherds
Every one of these changes became a BLESSING!
What if God wants to bring hope IN the circumstances?
HOPE IS HERE even when plans change!
