COT:

One of the names of our Savior Jesus Christ that I’ve been pondering is Hope of the World. These are some thoughts of the hope He gives.

Hope to be known, seen, and loved 100%, as we are.

Hope to change, hope that He who sees us as we are can help us become something better. Hope that we can overcome weaknesses so deep we may even consider them part of our personality or identity, but that we know deep down aren’t in line with our truest, divine identity. Hope that we can overcome stagnation and despair, and find peace for our guilt, relief for our regrets.

Hope that we and those we love will live again.

Hope that we can start again. And again. And again and again. Hope for second chances, clean slates, new beginnings. Hope that there is no such thing as the end.

Hope that the joy we can feel right now doesn’t depend on the circumstances of our lives, but on the focus of our lives.

Jesus Christ is that never ending source of hope and joy. May we each feel His hope this Christmas season!

Your circumstances SHOULD NOT dictate your attitude.
