Advent - Hope In The Waiting By Julia Berger
Biblical Hope is not just wishful thinking but a confident expectation rooted in God’s Faithfulness.
Advent season prepares people for Jesus Christ’s birth at Christmas, while also pointing ahead to his promised return.
His word brings hope Romans 15:4
Other believers can remind us of the hope we have Hebrews 1:1-2 Acts 2:17-18 Joel 2:28-29
Creation declares his glory and brings hope Psalm 19:1
