Great

Jesus is our great Hope. That is the Christmas story in a nutshell. In Jesus, we have significance, security, acceptance, and forgiveness. In Jesus, we are empowered by his Spirit to show the world how the glory of the Lord shines through our lives. 

Our Shepherd gives us everything we need. Protection. Nourishment. Safety. And when we go astray, he comes to find us. He is our Overseer all the way home.

Whatever you are going through, find help and peace with the Great Shepherd. He will never disappoint you.

When the night is the darkest; when discouragement hangs over your soul like a thick fog; when getting out of bed becomes the hardest part of your day; when your lips can’t smile; when the smallest chore takes all the energy you have, the Spirit is there praying for you at a depth beyond human words.

We were saved ultimately for this great hope. In the meantime, we live obediently and wait patiently.

Christians are made for another world, and it’s already ours…but not yet.

One day Jesus will wipe away every tear and welcome you to the home where pain, suffering, crying, and tears cannot enter. Your darkest night will one day be erased by the view of the Son.

I will share in his glory forever. Be encouraged! The best is yet to come.

Easter is coming. But today, slow down and thank Jesus for his great sacrifice.
