God's Perfect Faithfulness

"O Lord, You are my God!  I will exalt You and praise Your name, for in perfect faithfulness You have done marvellous things, things planned long ago ... We trusted in Him and He saved us.  This is the Lord; we trusted in Him; let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation."  Isaiah 25:1,9b

Hope

'May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.' (Romans 15:13)

In the midst of life’s challenges, hope often seems elusive.  Yet because of God’s unconditional love for us and His consistent faithfulness, hope is available to us.

Hope is something solid when it is based on our trust in Jesus.  The question may then be, ‘Can I really trust Him?’  Hurts and disappointments, confusion, the complexities of life can contribute to doubt, perhaps despair.
