Do you need hope? Do you need an anchor in your life? In this message, Bobby Strahan, shares how hope can be the anchor that steadies you in every storm. Hope can carry you through to experience what you have hoped for.
God’s love can be seen more in times of trouble as long as we keep our hope in Him. He is faithful. In times of trial, we can accelerate our growth in Him as we hope in Him.
Biblical hope is not wishful thinking. Biblical hope is trusting, desiring, looking for someone or something with expectation of future benefit.
