A Daily Devotional
About God being bigger than
hopelessness:
Ephesians 1:18 I pray also
that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the
hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the
saints, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is
like the working of his mighty strength, � (NIV)
Many people have times in life when they think they have no hope. However, if we step back from the time of our seeming to have no hope, we would see our time of hopelessness to be a time of foolishness. We would see the foolishness of our thinking. We are foolish to think we have no hope. If there is one major lesson we should learn from Christ coming to earth. This lesson is our hope for the future extends into eternity. The hope we can have for the future is so immense, so dramatic, so beautiful, so full of promise, and so full of reward, no words can describe what is in store for us. We have momentary problems demanding we attend to these problems for the moment. However, our momentary problems are only for the moment. Our problems are only for the present minute. When we take an eternal view of our momentary problems we can see the truth about our life now and in the future. Our present pain, worry, and problems melt away when we see our life in eternity. The beauty and grandeur of Heaven pour so much light and love over us, even the deepest darkness has no power to defeat us.
