Earlier I asked you to consider how God may be calling you to prepare for the arrival of His Son, Jesus. We’ve considered hope this week. Hope that is based in the promises of God, fulfilled in Jesus and requires that we wait.
Today I want you to consider the call to hope in the promises of God not only for yourself but for another. There are times when our hope is stronger than another’s, we have an easier time trusting God and believing Him. There are times when others are struggling to hope and to believe God. Can you think of someone now who needs you to hold onto hope for them? In preparing for the coming of Jesus, consider now how you can help another hope, whether they know Jesus or not. One way is to hold onto hope for them – hold onto the promises of God and tell them that you are doing so.
Receive this benediction as we conclude this week of Hope:
“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
**Sit quietly again for as much time as is available to you.**
