Hope April 11, 2018




1 Corinthians 15:19  (NIV)
19 If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.

Wow, what a powerful and sobering thought. Our faith in Jesus' resurrection, and our faith in being joined to him, is so crucial that all else pales in comparison. Our hope in Christ is not just for here and now, but it is also a hope that transcends life and bursts the shackles of death. If it doesn't offer us this hope, then it is no hope at all; it is not really good news. We are deluded and to be pitied. But then, I do believe! That, my friend, changes everything!

Thought for today: What do I hope for in this life?
