"My Sunday School teacher said Jesus can come at any time and I want to be ready for<br />

him," the little girl smiled.<br />

The Bible teaches that we should live, "looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious<br />

appearing of the great God and our Savior, Jesus Christ" (Titus 2:13). Hope that Christ is<br />

coming for you will help you get through any problem.<br />

Hope is manufactured out of a realization that God sits on the throne. "And we know that<br />

all things work together for good to them that love God" (Rom. 8:28). A middle-aged man drags<br />

a steel brace around on his leg because he had polio as a boy. He could have been bitter because<br />

he had never played sports. But he accepted everything from God. Each week he anticipates<br />

God's work in his life. He knows that one day he shall walk without crutches and a brace and his<br />

struggle with pain will be over. Hope conquers all.
