Living Hope

SCRIPTURE
1 Peter 1:3: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead


OBSERVATION
Because of God's mercy, he gave us new birth into a LIVING hope through Christ's resurrection.


APPLICATION
People place hope in all sorts of things. We place hope in the fact that the economy will turn around, that our car will get us to work in the morning, etc. Hope in objects are dead! Because of Christ's death and resurrection we have hope...Living hope! Heb 6:19 says that the hope we have in Christ is an anchor for our soul!

PRAYER
Father, thank you! Thank you for the living hope we have in Christ as an anchor for our soul!
Amen
