When we look at the world today, it doesn’t seem like there are a lot of reasons to have hope. But when we look to God’s Word, we have plenty of reasons to live each day full of hope.
The Bible is filled with many great promises and truths to encourage you each day. Some of them are listed below. You can add your own favorite passages, write them down on an index card, print them off, memorize them, or take a screen shot and keep them on your phone as a constant reminder of God’s love for you and the hope you have in Christ.
“Your word is my source of hope.”
(Psalm 119:114 NLT)
