The Triumph of hope
"The Christians hope is in the Lord, he rest secure in his sure word and when his tempted to despair, he'll choose to trust God's love and care

We who believe in Jesus base our hope on one history's best documented events- His resurrection. Moreover, when we "trust and obey". our confidence in Him grows, and hope triumphs over dread and despair. Job had a foundation his faith in God. When he was suffering and feeling that death would come soon, he experienced mixed feelings, dread, despair, and hope.
There were times when it seemed as if God was his enemy. Yet he kept believing that the Lord does right and loves His people. In the end, hope triumphed over despair. Death is unwelcome intruder to those who must face it in youth or during their prime years. Yet even in these situations, those who live close to Christ receive grace to die in hope.
So how this apply to us?
A life verse to ponder
1 Corinthians 15:20
‘'Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.’
YOU LIVE WITHOUT GOD MEANS TO DIE WITHOUT HOPE.
