When we look around at today’s world, hope is not usually the first word that comes to mind. If we allow our thoughts to dwell on things such as political divisions, violence, secular culture or world affairs, we can easily become discouraged. Life can be rough. When marriages falter, bank accounts run low, health fails or other people let us down, we sometimes feel the ground shaking beneath our feet. When life seems overwhelming, the temptation arises to give in to worry, fear, doubt or bitterness. God offers us another-a better- choice. Through Him, we can dare to hope, not in the government, our family, a job or even the church. God calls us to surrender our wills to His and rest our hope in Him alone.
This 6-week study examines God’s words of instruction to His wayward people through the prophet Jeremiah and provides six guidelines for hopeful living in an unstable world. It will inspire us to dare to hope, remembering God is rich in mercy and love and has good plans for us.
