DAY 6 OF 7

Day 6: Pray for hope

Are you finding yourself running low on hope? Do you wonder when quarantine will end? Are you questioning if there’s any hope for life to return to normal?

Hope doesn’t come naturally to most of us. It takes discipline to remember our hope is in the One who overcame the world, not in the things of this world.

Following Jesus does not keep us from facing trouble, but it does assure us that we are never hopeless. As Christians, we are constantly being refined in the midst of our hardships (James 1:2–4). Elizabeth Elliot says: “God will not protect you from anything that will make you look more like Jesus.”

Choose today to cling to hope in all circumstances, knowing Jesus completes every good work that he begins (Philippians 1:6). Rejoice in difficulties, trusting that if he allows it, he will also one day redeem it for his glory.

Lord, there is no hope without you. But in you, and through you, we have hope in all circumstances. Take our days Lord—the good, the bad, the easy, the hard—and use them to reveal more of your character. Give us hope in spite of our circumstances. Please show us a greater picture of your perfect love.
