Our Hope is in you Lord, for the security in knowing, that even though we live in a world that is passing away, you have a place ready for us that will NEVER fade away.

And how should we speak?

So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:17-21‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Our Hope is not in Earthly things (See notes below).

Our Hope is not in our local, regional, or international leaders, or our nation. Our Hope is in the one true God, who knows all things and his plan marches on, in spite of those who stand against him. His plan is to rescue all those who turn to Jesus, his son, that they might be restored to a right standing before him. For those who turn to him for their Hope, there is both blessing and forgiveness, for what is behind us.

This is not an external act of religion, but a reflection of a change of heart, by faith, based on love. Lord, may we be a people of Love, based on a changed heart, by the work of your son Jesus.

Not because of who we are, but because of what he has done. Not because of who we are, but because of what he has done. We have our advocate in Jesus.

Forgive us Lord, when we seek help in the temporal things. May we ALWAYS, find comfort and help in you, no matter what comes our way. NOTHING, can separate us from your LOVE!

This is a work in process for me, what about you. Thank you Lord, that YOU are patient, bearing our burdens and showing GREAT LOVE for us. One day we will be perfect, but today and tomorrow, we are working at it in your strength. It is a process.
