01 Oct Faith’s Hope
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Heb 11:1 KJV
Our confidence finds its substance in the picture of hope we have tucked within our hearts. Faith’s credibility is found in the unseen reality we are creating through hope.
Coolidge said, “We do not need more of the things which are seen. We need more of the things which are unseen.”
Jesus was a man born of a virgin, a man who lived a sinless life, a man who suffered and died for our sins, a man who rose from the dead, a man who appeared to His disciples after His resurrection. These are not just fairy tales but factual events confirmed by historians of that day. When we see the picture of these very impossible realities we discover a picture of hope that causes us to stand up and say “ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!”
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. Rom 15:13 NIV
Take some time this week to cultivate the unseen picture of HOPE in your heart! It is the picture of your new tomorrow!
