Despair cast a dark night over the present age in which we are living. However, our heavenly father shines his light as the God of hope for all the sons of despair. He is the God of new beginnings, restoring the lost and rebuilding the ruined. Each period of history prepares the way for the next in God's eternal purpose. Our hope lies in the unchanging purpose of God. God as the God of hope brings about the positive out of every negative. Shinning through the scriptures is the glowing truth of a God who will not give up His purpose, or his people, as long as we give him opportunities to work. God's promises also gives us a confidence that enables us to live in the hope of a glorious dawn. The promises never fade. We are sustained by the great and precious promises given to us by the God of hope.
