hope; the ultimate anchor.

I love that verse,

that hope anchors the soul.

That God swore on Himself (a promise to Abraham)

so that he would know it was truth.

It's one of those things, that if you don't have it, you desperately miss it,

even if you don't know what you're missing.

Life without hope is pointless and fleeting and just plain exhausting.

Without hope, where's the push for the day-to-day things that you have to do.

Why would you do it, without hope of something?

I find I'm dumbfounded when confronted with a life like that,

a life that goes on and on never changing or growing...

The simplest description is that it's boring,

but more importantly it's lacking..

You could almost say it lacks life.

That "we have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf."

the h o p e of being near Him always.

Hebrews 6:13-20
