In need of HOPE.

Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”  And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.  So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them—walking, leaping, and praising God.(Acts 3:6-8)

So many are in need today . . . jobs, relationships, finances, health, but more importantly HOPE. Hope in the medical research . . . Hope in the government . . . Hope in the economy . . . Hope in recovery. However the only real HOPE we can trust in is the HOPE Christ promises . . . an eternal relationship with God the Father! It is a promise, not a wish or a dream, for those who trust Him as Lord and Savior.

You need, like Peter told the beggar, we may not have food, money or even medicine to meet everyone's needs, but we who trust in Christ do have something much more valuable to share: HOPE in Christ!

Knowing where we will spend eternity negates a lot of fears for sure! It brings inner Peace and calmness that goes beyond human understanding. (Philippians 4:7) When all hell breaks loose, as in our societies today, Peace, the Spirit of God, steps in!


Are You in need of HOPE today? Trust the Prince of Peace!
