Confident HopeFaith Gives Us Hope
Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5) Hope Eternal2 Corinthians 4:16-18
The Message16-18 So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside, it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever. For ReflectionHaving three children who my wife and I were sure were blind and deaf to our constant correction and advice, we have been amazed at how much each of them grew into Grace. One never knows the impact each of has on the lives of the other. Sometimes it takes years to see the results of our efforts. Sometimes we never know. Yet, not a day goes by without God's unfolding grace. Indeed, there is far more than meets the eye. Often, things that seem to degenerate resolve into wonderful conclusions. PrayPray, be patient, be hopeful, and be amazed by the unfolding Grace of God.
