Hope in Times of HopelessnessSample

Hope in Times of Hopelessness

DAY 1 OF 7

In our times of greatest despair and deepest anguish, hope is the expectation to which our heart devotes itself. To stay motivated in life, we all need something that we can cling to that assures us of better things to come. But when all that you hoped for does not come to pass, you become disheartened and discouraged. When your breakthrough does not happen as anticipated, your spirit is crushed and you are left demotivated, without the inner resolve to carry on.

Have you placed your hope on that which is temporal or have you fixed it on that which is sure and eternal? Is your hope grounded in faith or is it floundering in doubt? Faith is the assurance and certainty that what you hoped for will one day become a reality. It is through faith that your hope, though deferred or distant, becomes a present reality. It stirs up your heart and renews your spirit to live motivated and joyful lives in the midst of your circumstances. Faith grows when we fix our eyes on Jesus, the author of our faith, dwelling on His word and fellowshipping with the Holy Spirit.
