January 25, 2026: Perspective Blog

January 25, 2026

Let this month’s blog posts help to anchor your soul in hope for the days ahead…

    Sometimes hope eludes me. Why? Most often because I am meditating on problems instead of promises, on my faults instead of God’s character, on the current news, instead of the Good News.

Sounds cliché? Still true. Here are some mind-renewing words.

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.  (Jeremiah 29:11

For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. (Ephesians 4:4)

… your confident hope of what God has reserved for you in heaven. You have had this expectation ever since you first heard the truth of the Good News. (Colossians 1:5)

This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. (Hebrews 6:19)

You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word. (Psalm 119:114)
