Ecclesiastes 9:4 (NIV)

“Anyone who is among the living has hope — even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!”




THREE REASONS WHY IT IS BETTER TO BE A LIVE DOG THAN A DEAD LION – WHY WE HAVE HOPE NO MATTER OUR CIRCUMSTANCES:


1. God specializes in “Tough Cases”

2. God specializes in the “Turn Around”

3. God is writing a “Page Turner”




Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
