1 Peter 1:3-5, “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, 4 and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. 5 And through your faith, God is protecting you by his power until you receive this salvation, which is ready to be revealed on the last day for all to see.”

 What Is Your Reason For Hope?

This passage is very practical. You see hope consists of two things: desire and expectation. Everybody has desires, things you want and long for. And you look to some thing to fulfill those desires and set your expectations on those things. That’s what hope is. You have to have desire and expectation for what will fulfill it.

So as we launch into another year, as we turn the page into another year filled with unknown blessings and hardships, trials and triumph, let me as you this "What Is Your Reason For Hope?” What is it that you are holding onto for dear life as you walk into this year? I hope that your answer is Jesus.

I hope that as you stare into this next year that you have a firm grip on the hand of our great Saviour, because through everything that will happen to us in 2022 He is our rock and hiding place. He not only knows the future, but He desire good things for us and as long as we stay close to Him, everyday, spend time with Him, read His word, learn about Him and have the Holy Spirit shine through us, then nothing, NOTHING will be able to rob us of the peace and victory we have in Jesus.
