The Tide-Turning Power of Hopeနမူနာ

Jesus was like Job, but even better than Job because He offers a life of hope to all. Indeed, it is the name of Jesus that has brought and still brings hope to generations of people around the world.

What did Jesus say about life?

Just before His time on earth ended, Jesus spoke to His closest friends about eternity.

In this world, you will have trouble. It’s a statement that feels brooding. Clouds are forming on the horizon of your life. You can’t outrun or escape it.

This thing called trouble will interrupt your life. We are not given any indication about how to know when trouble is coming, nor how it will turn up. We are just promised that it will visit our lives.

Jesus was candid: He knew that life has unavoidable troubles and that we all come to a point where life hurts. But He made the claim that you can still have peace amid the challenges. This kind of peace is an inner calm and overall wellness, regardless of circumstances.

Hope is more than a feeling, a virtue, or an outlook. Hope is a person, and hope has a name: Jesus.
