Do you ever find yourself wincing at your frequent failures in your walk with God? Are mountaintop victories sometimes followed by valleys of our own making? No life of faith is a straight climb toward perfection, but rather a winding journey of wandering and returning. But here’s the good news: God’s grace meets you every time you stumble, His Word continually calls you back, and His promises invite you to start anew. He knows that you long to be faithful, even when you falter. Take heart in that truth and remember that the only time you fail is when you refuse to get back up!

Our lives are fueled by hope. The decisions we make, the goals we pursue — in fact everything we do is driven by the hope that our efforts will make life better tomorrow than it is today. Often we search for hope in all the wrong places. We mistakenly think that we will find hope in a new relationship, or by having a particular experience, or if our current circumstances were different. But none of those things can ever give us hope. There is only one place hope can be found. Have you found it yet?
