What can we count on in 3 years?

Daily writing promptWhat will your life be like in three years?View all responses

In our chaotic, crazy, and cruel world, what can we count on to give us hope that life will be bearable in three years (or thirty-three years)? We can’t count on politicians. They’re a moral mess. We can’t count on the economy. It’s definitely not a secure thing. We can’t count on other people. Two of my best friends just turned on me and shut me out of their life. We can’t count on preachers. Another famous one was just exposed as hypocritical. We can’t count on world peace. New wars are always breaking out.

In all of life’s ups and downs I’ve only found one source of stability and strength that gives me ongoing hope that no matter what happens I will be safe and secure in the future. My hope is in the living, resurrected Jesus Christ. I am continually strengthened by Christ who powerfully works in me. (Colossians 1:29.) Three years or thirty-three years, in the future I will be trusting in what Jesus is doing in me.

You can’t see hope, but without it life’s just an empty routine. Let Jesus fill your heart with hope!

The Jesus Movement isn’t just an ancient memory from old Jesus Freaks. Jesus never stops moving. We too often just look the other way.
