Hope Found In Relationship
January 26, 2024
Hope is found in relationship with God and other people.
In Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus said, “Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence. This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: Love others as well as you love yourself.”
God wants us to be in relationship with Him and with other people. You may have heard the phrase, “no man is an island,” well, we sure try sometimes, don’t we?
It’s so important for me to be surrounded by people who are tuned into God. People that see things I miss. People who hear things I’m not listening for. People who understand things that I can’t comprehend. People who pull me into a deeper place of realization that God is alive and longs to be trusted and loved.
People who remind me of hope, even when I’m blind to the evidence of it surrounding me.
Remember, choose hope today.
