HOPE

Each day they arise in complete apprehension, with great concern about the future not mentioned. And they struggle with their daily living, their solicitude is with great misgiving. Their anguish grows with great distress, and wretchedness has given them no rest. Surrounded in complete sorrow, with no hope for the day they call tomorrow. Why must they hold on to all of this fear, and live in misery another year? Is there escape from all of this woe, without living by all the rules they know? Can we bury this old life, and live forever without strife? As a woman bears a child with anguish and pain, the new born baby makes her happy again. So it is with you who must give up the old way, and live no longer strugglling from day to day. The Bible is firm and the path is clear, you must be born again this very year. Your second birth is a spiritual incident, demanding from your old life you must repent. Then accept Jesus as God's only Son, and tell others about Him and the job is done. With Jesus always within your heart, life takes on a new meaning right from the start. All of the Angels will rejoice as they see, you are finally relieved from all of your misery.
