DON'T GIVE UP ON HOPE

 4-7-25

Lainey days

 

My dad is trying to fix his new CPAP machine. When I was preparing to make are daily phone call this morning. I looked at the Jesus Always book that we sometimes do together and I read April 7 and it was good. It was nice and I was like, but what Lord what do we need? The word perplex, popped in my head) came to me and I knew to look up a verse in first Corinthians where that is, And as I’m talking to my dad, I realized it’s exactly what he needs because I had no idea when I called that he was trying to fix his new CPAP machine (it was recording many more stop breathing incidents than ever in the past) and having difficulty but he already had in place a nurse who helped him he already had in place a Doctor Who was gonna call him in the afternoon. He has his phone recording-the rhythms in the night of breathing so he’s kind of on top of. I was like, “You are on top of it have you lost your peace God gives you?” He said, “No, but I’m a little worried.” Your not destroyed or in despair. As we have been working on our default responses when we are in the waiting room of life, when someone ask you, “how are you doing?” We could say, “I’m a little perplexed, but not in despair because I have things in place that are going to give me answers .” What comes out of our mouth as we trust in the Lord and from the overflow of our heart shows the light of Jesus and his promise to take care of us. We say with our own mouth, “I’m a little worried, but I have things in place.” With that said he shouts out, so “Don’t give up on hope!” He doesn’t get what’s going on and he doesn’t understand fully this new machine he doesn’t get why it was The numbers were good and now they’re kind of off that gives him a bit of fear and he is perplexed but, He said, “Don’t give up on Hope.” I love that woo. Hope is Jesus. Today we know for sure we got on the phone anticipating reading your word and praying with you Lord and here The Holy Spirit worked out a message. “Don’t give up on.” Hope Jesus is hope.

As we talk to each other daily, God gives us these little catchphrases that coincides with his word and it gives us peace to know he did this he gave us hope !

2 CORINTHIANS 4:8-12 "We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you." NIV

DON'T GIVE UP ON H.O.P.E.

HE OFFERS PEACE ETERNALLY
