“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13 (NIV)
There are times in life when it's hard to see what God is doing. We pray and wait for answers, but things don't always happen the way we expect. I've learned that just because I can't see God working doesn't mean He isn't.
Having hope in Jesus doesn't mean life will be easy. It means I have someone to lean on when things get hard. I've spent enough of my life putting my hope in things that couldn't save me. But when I gave my life to Jesus, I found a hope that doesn't depend on my circumstances.
I still have days when I struggle, but I know the same God who brought me through my past will walk with me into my future. I don't have to understand everything. I just have to keep trusting Him.
Today, I'm choosing to put my hope in Jesus instead of worrying about tomorrow. Because no matter what happens, I know I'll never have to face it alone.
Today's Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for the hope I have in Jesus. Help me trust You even when I don't understand Your plans. Remind me that You are always with me.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
