Day 17: A result of Christmas - Hope
God’s people anticipated a day where a person would rescue them from their difficult situation. They expected a king that would reign on the throne of King David. Many believed God would fulfill His promises of a Messiah for His people, yet the fulfillment of these promises and prophecies came in a way that many did not expect! We like the Jews can often misplace our hope. Many of us have placed our hope in things that are dying. Hope in money disappoints, hope in appearance fades away, hope in relationships disillusion, hope in Jesus grows because He is alive! God does not simply give me a hope that I am saved from my sin and simply need to wait around for heaven, but He gives me a hope that is saved for a purpose.
