My Journey To Hope

20191201 MY JOURNEY TO HOPE.JPG

Luke 1:26-38

Big idea: Hope is confidently trusting my unknown future to a known God

I live with hope when I trust:

1. God’s sufficiency

God’s grace is fully sufficient for me everyday:
1) God’s position (v. 28, 38)
2) God’s presence (v. 28, 35, 37)
3) God’s promises (v. 30-33, 38)
4) God’s plan (v. 30-38)
5) God’s power (v. 35, 37)

Obediently following God’s plan means:
1) I trust God’s timing & provision more than my own understanding
2) I take the next step in faith without knowing all the details
3) I treasure my eternal reward more than my earthly comfort

2. God’s sovereignty
