Hope - He Holds My Hand

Hope

What gives me the most hope every day is God’s grace; knowing that his grace is going to give me the strength for whatever I face, knowing that nothing is a surprise to God.

Rick Warren

Wake up every morning with hope in your heart. Look forward to what I will do for you today. One of the tools of the enemy is discouragement. He will look for your most vulnerable place and tell you that things are getting worse. He’ll try to make you think that I’ve forgotten you and that you might as well give up. But hope brings a different perspective. Because you belong to Me, confidently anticipate how this experience can bring Me glory and be a catalyst for positive change in your life. Concentrate on My promises, and hope will replace discouragement (Romans 15:4). Instead of allowing negative thoughts to take over your mind, stay focused on what you know to be true about Me. My resources are available to you. I’m right beside you. I want the best for you. Your happiness is not dependent upon perfect circumstances or fluctuating emotions but comes through hope in Me (Psalm 146:5). I long for you to overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.

I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 15:13
