SUFFERING PRODUCES HOPE
"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." Martin Luther King Jr.
PRAY: Jesus, I want to boast about You and the hope of Your glory! I also want to embrace my sufferings, knowing that they are a part of life. I want to believe that my sufferings produce perseverance, and by persevering I am building a Christ-like character, and that strength of character will give me a hope that will never disappoint me. Thank You for loving me SO MUCH and even giving me Your Holy Spirit. Thank you for answering my prayer!
REFLECT: Are you afraid of suffering? When have you ever thanked God in the middle of your sufferings? Have you ever looked back and thanked Him for how He turned your suffering into good? Do you feel like you are a stronger Christian because of the suffering you have experienced? Question whether you believe that God causes suffering or He allows it for our own good. Does your answer line up with the truth of this scripture?
ACT: Thank God right now for every difficult thing you're going through. Look at how your suffering is building your Christian character and thank Him that He loves you so much that He'll push you beyond your comfort zone in order to give you hope that will never disappoint you! And thank Him for giving you the Holy Spirit to hold you up through every hard day. Thank Him for loving you that much!

Acerca de este Plan
HPN wants to help meet your personal spiritual needs, supply you a solid daily devotional, as well as encourage you to include praying for the people, the projects, and the incredible influence of the Hollywood entertainment industry. We see it as the world’s most influential mission field and yet the people there struggle with the same issues that we do. This week we’re celebrating a topic that runs all through the entire Bible – God’s life-changing promise of HOPE. God tells us to hope in Him, to not put our hope in the things of the world, that suffering produces hope and that hoping in our wealth is worthless but hoping in Him will never disappoint us. These commands and promises are thrilling, but so hard to do. Join us this week in letting go of what’s comfortable and embracing God’s promise to put all of our hope in Him!
