Stories Of Hope

Read Hebrews 11:30-40

The Bible is filled with stories of people who conquered and overcame great circumstances! It is also filled with stories of people who did not conquer or overcome in their lifetime but were willing to suffer for the cause of Christ. Today it is much the same, you see those who achieve great victories in this life for Christ and others whose oppression is unimaginable; but just like those in the scriptures they see so clearly what lies before them. These scriptures reveal that a blessed life is not always where God uses us but many times just like with many godly people in the Bible he uses us in the midst of oppression and mistreatment. In any and all circumstances we are to continue to move forward for His kingdom, never giving up on what lies before us - Heaven!
