Let your hope keep you joyful, be patient in your troubles, and pray at all times.
(Romans 12:12 GNT)
It could be very easy to let ourselves move into the realm of fear and anxiety because of so many changes and unknowns, but that is not who we are as believers. Throughout His Word, God points us to hope.
If we trust in Him, nothing can come against us and destroy who we are in Him. This is not to say that we won’t have difficulties. But if we hope and pray for His help, we will get through the challenges that we face.
In today's world, we have an unexcelled opportunity to shine God’s love and proclaim His message of hope to the world.
“He who sows, even with tears, the precious seed of faith, hope and love, shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves with him, because it is the very nature of that seed to yield a joyful harvest.” - Richard Cecil
