Hope




In Isaiah 64: 1-9, it is written about God’s awesome creation and powers (the creation of the heavens and earth) and our human failures.  In other words, the imagery of knowing God, not through seeing (as we did through Jesus Christ), but feeling and hearing and realizing that we have failed and lost sight of God!

There is always hope, even knowing that we have failed.  A hope that as God knows us and also knows what we need.  God will take care of us, he is our creator.  For “we are the clay and God is the potter”, we are the work of God’s hand. God will not forget or condemn what God has created.

As we prepare for Christmas in the coming weeks, when God comes to us through Jesus Christ, he reminds us what it means to be created in God’s image as Jesus lives with us and speaks to us.  God will mold and shape us if we are open and allow it.

Prayer: Remember there is always “hope” and hope is good.  We must never forget there is “Hope”. Amen
