Every day that we wake up, each of us faces a world filled with the clutter of bad news, difficult relationships, and unwelcome surprises. Hope is the inner belief that "...in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose..." (Rom. 8:28 NIV). Hope, powered by the rocket fuel of Faith, needs to be renewed in us every single day. Stories can help do just that. As we learn how to forgive, to embrace second chances, to walk well through the loss of a job, to grieve, or to experience God's love, we start to become people of hope in the world. Thirty Stories Of Hope is meant to give you daily strength as you embrace God's promises for yourself - and become a Hope-Giver in your own world.
