Surety

The surety of our hope is designed to be the bedrock of our daily attitude toward our circumstances. God promises confirm His love for me and the victory that will come through my faith in His promises. When I take my eyes off those promises--off my hope--I begin to let my fears dominate my view of my circumstances both in the present and the future--sometimes, even, in the events from my past. I struggle then to love and obey Him. I struggle then to live by faith and find myself dominated by sight. When fear and worry overwhelm me, the cause is clear. I have "lost" my hope in the immutable promises of God. Our hope is sure. Believing that, brings daily victory and the death of fear and worry's ability to control my thought processes. Hope in God!! Live a life of confident obedience.
