HOPE ---------- by Max Lucado The scene recorded in Luke 24:13-24 fascinates me-two sincere disciples walking along the dusty road to Emmaus telling how the last nail has been driven in Israel's coffin. God, in disguise, listens patiently, his wounded hands buried deeply in his robe. He must have been…

To have the form of godliness without the power of it is to lack constancy in your religion. It is a very hot and thirsty day, and you are riding on a camel.

A student at the university, hoping to gain a prize, uses his best endeavors, burns the midnight oil, and strains all his faculties that he may reach the mark that will ensure his passing the examinations. Even thus the Christian with a lively hope devotes himself to obtaining the blessings that God…
