Hope – Word for 2019


Can you believe that all of January and over half of February has gone by!!!  I did pick a word for the year and I had every intention of posting it early in January.  I will go with the phrase – better late than never.

Hope is a word that looks toward the future.  I hope that 2019 will be a year full of good things for me and my family. As the year goes by I plan to post things that give me a better understanding of this word I have chosen to focus on in 2019.

This morning in worship service we studied about being “born again to a living hope”.  As a child of God, my hope is living…through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that ….does not perish….is undefiled….does not fade.  Guess where this inheritance is located.  That’s right….heaven. How wonderful is that!!!  And it is being guarded by God’s power through faith for a salvation to be revealed in the last time.  Hope….Living Hope.  Something to ponder this week.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time”
