Devotional
About the light of hope: 1 Peter 1:3 Praise be to
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us
new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the
dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade--kept in
heaven for you, 5 who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming
of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you
greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief
in all kinds of trials. (NIV) When we think there is no way,
there is a way. When we think there is no hope, there is hope. When we think all
is finished, we have yet to begin. When we think there is no chance, there is
every possibility and every probability what we think is gone is not gone at
all. Hope is a flickering light illuminating our life. Christ came as the light
of the world. His light is the hope of the world. Our faith in Christ gives us a
way to conquer the times of our hopelessness. When we think all is finished,
Christ comes to show us our work has not yet begun. When we think there is no
chance of anything good happening, the greatest doer of good comes and shows us
His ultimate good in our life is yet to be accomplished. You can be defeated
only by your consent. For every setback you experience, Christ is behind you and
if need be, pushing you onward. For every second you think you can't take one
more step,
Christ tells you to keep moving, to stop feeling sorry for yourself, and to keep
looking up.
