Hebrews 6:19… Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast.

 

   Our bodies have been constructed to withstand an enormous amount of pressure. God has made us to be resilient people.

We can survive the heat of the tropics or the icy winds of winter. With undaunted courage we can go through seasons of illness,

financial reversals, domestic disappointments, unemployment, or death of someone dear to us….if. If we don’t lose the one essential ingredient-HOPE!

   We can rebound against wind and weather, calamity and tragedy, disease and death, so long as we have our hope.

We can live weeks without food, days without water, and even several minutes without air, but take away our hope and within the briefest amount of time, we toss in the towel!

…God knowing this about his children, God calls Hope the ANCHOR OF THE SOUL! “the irreplaceable, irreducible source of determination.

He not only calls it our anchor,

He develops a helpful series of thoughts about hope in His Book, the Bible. But in one verse

He concentrates on the word hope, just remember when the winds blow and the waves toss you about, you have and anchor, and its called hope.
