The Future is as Bright as the Promise of God 2

Living our “Life with Jesus” in this world is often not easy. The world does not know us and the world hates us.

But whenever the world comes against me and it looks dark ahead of me;

I open my wallet, in which I carry for many years now a little card on which is written:

“The Future is as Bright as the Promise of God”

Now, there are more than thousand Promises in God’s word that He made to  those who belong to Him. But;

For no matter how many promises God has made, they are Yes in Christ. And so through him the Amen is spoken by us to the glory of God.

( 2 Corinthians 1:20)

Therefore we can take Abraham’s example:

Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God,

but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,

being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.

(Rom 4:20-21)

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

When it looks dark ahead of us, we can be sure of God’s promise that

darkness will end with the light of  a new day:

A righteous man may have many troubles,

but the LORD delivers him from them all.

(Ps 34:19)

weeping may remain for a night,

but rejoicing comes in the morning.

(Ps 30:5b)

Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope:

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

(La 3:21-23)

wish a blessed day
