“Hope is dangerous as an NFL fan,” said someone somewhere on the World Wide Web.
Yep.
And trusting in your job or health or resources is dangerous also.
The only certain hope is Almighty God, who knows everything, can do anything, and from whom comes eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)
Putting trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior never goes wrong.
We are to be responsible about our health, relationships, and finances, for example, but if we rely on something or someone in this world rather than Christ, we are in danger. Be aware of those times, confess, and determine to make the God of hope your hope.
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:13)
