Something Good Is Going to Happen
Adapted from Quiet Times with God
But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] will gain new strength and renew their power….
Hope is a positive expectation that something good is going to happen because of God’s great love for you. It is not a wishy-washy, wait-and-see attitude, but a mindset we must choose on purpose each day.
Hope in Christ enables us to endure hardships and long waiting periods without giving up, and God uses these times to develop character and endurance in us.
Hope reminds us to believe that God has a plan; things are going to work out. It is the sometimes unexplainable but always undeniable feeling that today would be a bad day to give up. When you choose hope, you are choosing to keep moving forward, knowing that God will make a way.
Prayer of the Day: Father God, I don’t know what today holds, but You do. Whatever is ahead of me today, I will choose hope over despair and refuse to be discouraged. I give You control! In the name of Jesus I pray, amen.
