In keeping with our Advent theme, this week we will look at hope. The Jewish people were hoping for a Savior, a Messiah. Though He slay me, I will hope in Him. Nevertheless I will argue my ways before Him. Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him For the help of His presence.
Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.
